# Working on a Wiki format MT plugin

<MTWikiFormat prefix="http://www.decafbad.com/twiki/bin/view/Main/" extended="1">
Please excuse the noise and dust - I'm working on a few new MT plugins to support Wiki formatting and <a href="http://www.decafbad.com/twiki/bin/view/Main/XmlRpcFilteringPipe">XmlRpcFilteringPipe</a>.  Are these wiki words working? <a href="http://www.decafbad.com/twiki/bin/view/Main/PipeFilters">PipeFilters</a>, <a href="http://www.decafbad.com/twiki/bin/view/Main/MovableType">MovableType</a>, <a href="http://www.decafbad.com/twiki/bin/view/Main/ShareAndEnjoy">ShareAndEnjoy</a>, etc.
<br /><br />
How about unordered lists?
    * One
    * Two
    * Three
How about ordered lists?
    1. One
    2. Two
    3. Three
And ''how'' '''about''' '''''this'''''?
</MTWikiFormat>
<br /><br />
This is another test.  <a href="http://www.decafbad.com/twiki/bin/view/Main/PipeFilters">PipeFilters</a>, <a href="http://www.decafbad.com/twiki/bin/view/Main/ShareAndEnjoy">ShareAndEnjoy</a>.
<br /><br />
<ul>
<li> One
</li>
<li> One a
<ul>
<li> two
<ul>
<li> three
<ul>
<li> four
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li> two a
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<br /><br />
How about a table?
<br /><br />
<table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4"> <tr><td>  this  </td><td>  is  </td><td>  a  </td></tr>
<tr><td>  test  </td><td>  table  </td><td>  format  </td></tr>
</table>

            <div class="content">This is a good idea (I've been tinkering with something like this as well, but making a Wiki look like a weblog).  BTW, make sure you add a Wiki shorthand for linking to earlier entries in the weblog.</div>
