Besides the bold and italic text there are (and logically should be) more formatting symbols to allow underlined, subscript, superscript, and strikethrough texts. Here I’ll show you what they are:

And the yellow box is a format for showing codes. All formatting symbols are off inside. Add a pair of @ in the beginning and the end of a phrase or paragraph to have it. Another useful feature of the yellow box is some smart converasion. For example typing four hyphens inside it you get the HTML tag of horizontal line
, while normally four hyphens give directly a horizontal line like the one shown above.Have a long article? Add headings to different section by adding an empty line then desired number of # before the section title:
<br/>#Heading 1#Heading 1
You can have as many as 6 level of headings:
#Heading 1
##Heading 2
###Heading 3
####Heading 4
#####Heading 5
######Heading 6Another thing that I’m not sure about is numbered subscripts. You can have a numbered superscript with a bookmark hyperlink by putting a number inside a pair of rectangular brackets: [x], the bookmark name is #fnx, x being the number you define. However, I can’t find a way to bookmark a line as name #fnx in response to the linked superscript (click it1…).

Thank you for this. It’s good to be able to make the formatting more interesting.
I also messed about a bit with changing the formatting and wrote a post about greek symbols and colours.
See also textism. The links from this website do not seem to be working at the moment, but you can get the idea…
Thank you very much! Textism is the key to Nature Network formatting. Everything there works!
