 +====== Syntax features ======
 +The new gEDA Project Wiki pages are hosted using Dokuwiki version 09 March 2006. This wiki-engine has several enhancements:​
 +  * Bug fixes.
 +  * A new toolbar in the editor.
 +  * [[http://​wiki.splitbrain.org/​wiki:​syntax|Syntax]] enhancements.
 +  * Updates to the [[http://​wiki.splitbrain.org/​wiki:​search|Search]] feature. You can now search for exact phrases by enclosing them with double quotes, and use "​*"​ wildcard searches.
 +  * Google [[http://​wiki.splitbrain.org/​wiki:​sitemap|sitemap]] support. Your edited content will be indexed by Google much faster.
 +  * You can upload and embed [[http://​wiki.splitbrain.org/​wiki:​images|other files]] into the pages using the MediaPopup feature on the toolbar in the editor (including image files, flash files, PDF files, etc.). Please note that image/media files can not be removed once uploaded by an author.
 +  * Footnotes.
 +  * Larger global cache, allowing for larger documents (currently set to 20 MB).
 +  * You can subscribe to e-mail pagechange notification,​ on a wiki-page by wiki-page basis. If you are interested in monitoring the changes made by others to a spicific page, simply press the "​Subscribe Changes"​ button at the bottom of the wiki-page. To unsubscribe from a wiki-page, simply press the "​Unsubscribe Changes"​ button.
 +  * URLs are now "​pretty"​.
 +  * Breadcrumbs (i.e., the line at the top of the browser'​s window that starts with "​Trace:"​. This is a "where are you" indicator.
 +  * Wiki-pages can be [[http://​wiki.splitbrain.org/​wiki:​export|exported]] to different formats (e.g., plain-text, simple XHTML (the page without navigational elements), rendered XHTML (no head or body tags), HTTP).
 +  * The ''<​code></​code>''​ tag supports syntax highlighting for numerous programming languages.
 +  * A playground for authors to "​play"​ with new features, before implimenting on the wiki's pages.
 +  * Control of Dokuwiki'​s [[http://​wiki.splitbrain.org/​wiki:​caching#​purging_the_cache|caching]] operations. This is important to wiki-page authors, as sometimes a page gets cached by Dokuwiki on the server, and needs to be purged. Remember, what the author sees may not be what others see.\\ This is different than your browser'​s cache, which may occassionally need to be flushed. For example, when the PHP global memory limit is exceeded, that wiki-page can't be displayed, even if the PHP global memory limit is changed on the server. You would need to flush your browser'​s cache to load and view the wiki-page.
 +  * XMLRPC access to edit pages with tools like vim with [[:​wiki:​dokuvimki|DokuVimKi]] plugin.
