''Annotation:''
* The {{{>}}} marker creates a "colspan", causing the current cell to merge with the one to the right.
* The {{{~}}} marker creates a "rowspan", causing the current cell to merge with the one above.

cf. [[TiddlyWiki.com|http://www.tiddlywiki.com/#EmbeddedImages]]
!Hyperlinks
* [[WikiWords|WikiWord]] are automatically transformed to hyperlinks to the respective tiddler
** the automatic transformation can be suppressed by preceding the respective WikiWord with a tilde ({{{~}}}): {{{~WikiWord}}}
* [[PrettyLinks]] are enclosed in square brackets and contain the desired tiddler name: {{{[[tiddler name]]}}}
** optionally, a custom title or description can be added, separated by a pipe character ({{{|}}}): {{{[[title|target]]}}}<br>'''N.B.:''' In this case, the target can also be any website (i.e. URL).
!Custom Styling
* {{{@@CssProperty:value;CssProperty:value;…@@}}}<br>''N.B.:'' CSS color definitions should use lowercase letters to prevent the inadvertent creation of WikiWords.
* {{{{{customCssClass{…}}}}}} /% DEBUG: buggy %/
* raw HTML can be inserted by enclosing the respective code in HTML tags: {{{<html> … </html>}}}
!Special Markers
* {{{<br>}}} forces a manual line break
* {{{----}}} creates a horizontal ruler
* [[HTML entities|http://www.tiddlywiki.com/#HtmlEntities]]
* {{{<<macroName>>}}} calls the respective [[macro|Macros]]
* To hide text within a tiddler so that it is not displayed, it can be wrapped in {{{/%}}} and {{{%/}}}.<br/>This can be a useful trick for hiding drafts or annotating complex markup.
* To prevent wiki markup from taking effect for a particular section, that section can be enclosed in three double quotes: e.g. {{{"""WikiWord"""}}}.
