-When you use the ''%%<code>%%'' or ''%%<file>%%'' syntax as above, you might want to make the shown code available for download as well. You can do this by specifying a file name after language code like this:

-</file>+
  
-If you don't want any highlighting but want a downloadable file, specify a dash (''-'') as the language code: ''%%<code - myfile.foo>%%''.+===== Control Macros =====
  
-===== RSS/ATOM Feed Aggregation ===== +Some syntax influences how the wiki renders a page without creating any output it self. The following control macros are availble:
-[[DokuWiki]] can integrate data from external XML feeds. For parsing the XML feeds, [[http://simplepie.org/|SimplePie]] is used. All formats understood by SimplePie can be used in DokuWiki as well. You can influence the rendering by multiple additional space separated parameters:+
  
-^ Parameter  ^ Description ^ +^Macro  ^Description|   |<nowiki>~~NOTOC~~ </nowiki>  |If this macro is found on the page, no table of contents will be created|   |<nowiki>~~NOCACHE~~ </nowiki>|The wiki caches all output by default. Sometimes this might not be wanted (eg. when the <nowiki><php></nowiki> syntax above is used), adding this macro will force rerender a page on every call|
-| any number | will be used as maximum number items to show, defaults to 8 | +
-| reverse    | display the last items in the feed first | +
-| author     | show item authors names | +
-| date       | show item dates | +
-| description| show the item description. All HTML tags will be stripped | +
-| nosort     | do not sort the items in the feed | +
-| //n//[dhm] | refresh period, where d=days, h=hours, m=minutes. (e.g. 12h = 12 hours). |+
  
-The refresh period defaults to 4 hours. Any value below 10 minutes will be treated as 10 minutes. [[wiki:DokuWiki]] will generally try to supply a cached version of a page, obviously this is inappropriate when the page contains dynamic external content. The parameter tells [[wiki:DokuWiki]] to re-render the page if it is more than //refresh period// since the page was last rendered.+===== Math =====
  
-By default the feed will be sorted by date, newest items first. You can sort it by oldest first using the ''reverse'' parameter, or display the feed as is with ''nosort''.+There is support for math rendering using TeX syntax. You can use [[https://www.math.brown.edu/johsilve/ReferenceCards/TeXRefCard.v1.5.pdf|this]] reference card when trying to type mathematical expressions.
  
-**Example:**+You can create inline $f(x) = \frac{1}{2\pi} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-\frac{x^2}{2}} dx$ notation 
 +<code>
  
-  {{rss>http://slashdot.org/index.rss 5 author date 1h }}+You can create inline $f(x) = \frac{1}{2\pi} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-\frac{x^2}{2}} dx$ notation
  
-{{rss>http://slashdot.org/index.rss 5 author date 1h }}+</code>
