I know that the tilde works, but for anything other than CamelCase, it shows the tilde as well. Can I change this, or (better yet) get a different character to do something similar while hiding itself? I would prefer to change the tilde's function, but anything that works is good.

Hi j3diH,

... It's probably easier, if you describe in more detail, what you want to achieve.

If you are brave try this, if it fits your needs:

Attention: Messing with the parsing rules can "brick" your TW. ... So BACKUP first :)
If you messed up your TW: There is a "safe-mode" that should help too.

You can disable every parsing rule in the "ControlPanel: Info: Advanced: Parsing"  tab. You need to save and reload, that changes take effect.

have fun!

Mm, ok. I'll try.
I want a key that does this: (let's assume I modify ~ to do what I want)

Editor:

~*test

Shows as:

*test

Instead of:

  • test

Hi,

TW has a syntax for this eg:

code-blocks

```
*test
```

or backtick for code:  `*test`

also see: TiddlyWiki - wikitext docs

Does that work for you?

this may be an option too: http://tiddlywiki.com/#Hard%20Linebreaks%20in%20WikiText

"""
*test
"""

-m

Hmm.. that's code, which kind of works, but I don't want it monospace or outlined or anything, and I already use code...

Edit: No, wait, the triple double-quotes work! Thank you.
