Moin Moin

There is a Creole parser plugin for the MoinMoin wiki engine.

It is based on the Creole0.4 draft.

There are several things not totally right:

• The expression for urls used is an approximation. In particular, commas, dots, exclamation marks and such are included in the url only when not followed by a space, so that you can write http://news.com/article/2006,09,06 as a link, but also see those two pages: http://one.org, http://two.org. Other special characters are included in the url, but escaped when appropriate.
• no "smart" resolving of ambiguity between bold and lists
• #pragmas from the top of page are filtered out before the parser gets to them, so it's possible to have a numbered lists broken this way
• Pre blocks use hashbang notation for denoting code type (for syntax highlighting).
• The <<placeholder>> syntax is used for macros,
• The {{image}} syntax is used for attachments.

I'm also thinking about writing a mixed-mode parser, but this can be pretty weird.
