    I'm trying to gather all the text formatting commands together for a definitive guide.
    I haven't got them all sussed yet but I'm working on it.
    Please post any other ones that you have or any corrections to what I've posted.
    Watch out for Americanized spellings.

    What markup is used for bold for example? I did that with the WYSIWG editor.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
