Andra Dinu (Erlang Factory)

The FPish messages use an HTML-like markup language to include elements such as code snippets, images or links. These are the tags you can use:

• Simple formatting
• Code
• Links & Images
• Lists
• Misc

<b>This syntax</b> inserts bold text.

<i>This syntax</i> inserts italic text.

<c>This syntax</c> inserts inline code.

<s>This syntax</s> inserts strikethrough text.

<h1>This syntax</h1> inserts a header. Available header tags are <h1>, <h2>, <h3> and <h4>.

<code>...</code> inserts a code snippet, like this:

main = putStrLn "This is a code snippet."

<code lang="fsharp">...</code> specifies the programming language, providing syntax higlighting:

let main() =
  printfn "This is an F# code snippet."

<a href="http://fpish.net">this syntax</a> inserts a link to FPish.net.

<img src="http://fpish.net/images/fish.png"> inserts an image.

You can insert ordered and unordered listings. They are identical to their HTML counterparts.

<ul> <li>Item 1</li> <li>Item 2</li> </ul>	becomes	Item 1 Item 2
<ol> <li>Item 1</li> <li>Item 2</li> </ol>	becomes	Item 1 Item 2

You can quote another post using <quote>...</quote>.

This is some nice code.

I quite agree with you.

You can add tables using HTML's <table>, <tr> and <td>.

<table> <tr> <td>C1</td> <td>C2</td> </tr><tr> <td>C3</td> <td>C4</td> </tr> </table>

becomes

C1 C2 C3 C4

An Erlang Factory is an event that focuses on Erlang - the computer language that was designed to support distributed, fault-tolerant, soft-realtime applications with requirements for high availability and high concurrency. The main part of the Factory is the conference - a two-day collection of focused subject tracks with an enormous opportunity to meet the best minds in Erlang and network with experts in all its uses and applications. Together with the Conference are optional three-day "University" training courses and tutorials, not only in Erlang itself, but also in related technologies and Erlang-based systems and products. The value of attending the courses in this way is that they are condensed versions of the more usual 5-day courses and allow delegates to attend the training as well as the conference in the 5-day period. Furthermore, having the training close behind the opportunity to discuss applications of it with experts, multiplies its value many times over compared with having just the training by itself.
