TextConventions

The conventions currently available in this wiki are:
1. a single newline becomes a line break
2. multiple newlines become a paragraph break
3. multiple words smooshed together with each subword capitalized is a link (like MainPage or TextConventions, but not like Hello or NotALinkBecauseAOnlyHasOneLetter)
4. email addresses and most URLs are converted into hyperlinks
5. phrases in double or triple singlequotes (like this and this) are emphasized or strongly emphasized, respectively
6. text in double braces (like

this

) will be displayed as "preformatted text"
7. A line of text followed immediately by a line of equals signs is considered a major heading.
8. A line of text followed immediately by a line of minus signs is considered a minor heading.
9. A paragraph consisting solely of a line of underscores becomes a horizontal rule.

Feel free to play around in the SandBox to get a feel for how the TextConventions work.
