Tip of the day

A better wiki editor: wikEd

Whether you are a new or advanced user, you can edit pages with ease by installing wikEd.

To install, simply select wikEd on the Gadgets panel of your Preferences:

Preferences → Gadgets → Editing → wikEd: a full-featured integrated text editor for Firefox, Safari, and Google Chrome (documentation)

wikEd provides many abilities, including a multifunctional search-and-replace feature for regular expressions (regex).

wikEd works in the following web browsers: Firefox, Pale Moon, SeaMonkey, Safari, WebKit, Google Chrome, and Opera (version 15 and higher). Currently, wikEd is not compatible with Internet Explorer or versions of Opera below 15.
