XP-Dev.com Documentation - User Gude - Text Formatting Guide

Below is a basic guide on how to format text using Textile

More complex examples can be found from seaching google

As a general guideline, you should try to keep an extra line between formatting syntaxes. For example, the syntax below might not work:

h1. Header
p. This is a paragraph

However, the following will work as expected:

h1. Header

p. The is a paragraph
