CamelCase
New words created by smashing together capitalized words.
CamelCase is the original wiki convention for creating hyperlinks, with the additional requirement that the capitals are followed by a lower-case letter; hence “AlabamA” and “ABc” will not be links.
Some people dislike linking by CamelCase. While Trac remains faithful to the original Wiki style, it provides a number of ways to accomodate users with different preferences:
-
There's an option (
ignore_missing_pagesin the "}}[wiki]]"] section of TracIni) to simply ignore links to missing pages when the link is written using the CamelCase style, instead of that word being replaced by a gray link followed by a question mark.That can be useful when CamelCase style is used to name code artifacts like class names and there's no corresponding page for them.
-
There's an option (
split_page_namesin the "}}[wiki]]"] section of TracIni) to automatically insert space characters between the words of a CamelCase link when rendering the link. -
Creation of explicit Wiki links is also easy, see WikiPageNames for details.
-
In addition, Wiki formatting can be disabled completely in some places (e.g. when rendering commit log messages). See
wiki_format_messagesin the "}}[changeset]]"] section of TracIni.
See TracIni for more information on the available options.
