New page

== 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.

=== Customizing the Wiki behavior ===

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 (<tt>ignore_missing_pages</tt> in the [[TracIni#wiki-section| "[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.<br>
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 (<tt>split_page_names</tt> in the [[TracIni#wiki-section| "[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 <tt>wiki_format_messages</tt> in the [[TracIni#changeset-section| "[changeset]]"] section of TracIni.

See TracIni for more information on the available options.
