Because of the lack of documentation/support on how to format board posts on audiotool using [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Wikitext Wikitext], here's a quick guide on how to get started adding flare to your posts! Note that this post is simply a modified version of the aforementioned link for audiotool specifically. Also, this post will be updated as new formats are added/discovered.
Text Formatting
Wikitext only supports bold and italic text formatting. Both of which use the apostrophe ('), three (3) and two (2) respectively.
Bold
: "'I'm Bold"'
Italics
: "I'm Italic"
Links (External)
All links on the board can be formatted either by simply pasting them into the editor or surrounding them with square brackets ([ ]). The latter provides support for more customization in formatting.
NOTE: All links to audiotool board rooms or posts will be formatted with their respective names by default
Named Link
: [ https://www.audiotool.com/ visit Audiotool ]
Bare Link
Layout
Headings
Headings, like the one above, can be rendered using equal signs (=) on either side of the target text. In accordance with HTML tags, there are six (6) headings.
: =Heading 1=
: ==Heading 2==
: ===Heading 3===
: ====Heading 4====
: =====Heading 5=====
: ======Heading 6======
Horizontal Rules
Horizontal rules, or dividing lines, can be rendered using four (4) dashes (-)
: ----
Line Breaks
Unlike your profile bio or track descriptions, breaks between lines must be separated by an empty line
NOTE: If you want a space between lines, you can use the following symbol across audiotool: ( )
: I am a
:
: broken line
Indentation
Indents (equivalent of pressing tab at the beginning of a new line) can be achieved with a colon ":". You can increase the indent by adding colons.
: : 1st Indent
:: :: 2nd Indent
::: :::... nth Indent
Lists
Both ordered and unordered lists can be rendered by using the asterisk "*" and hash "#" symbols respectively
=Ordered Lists=
# Item 1
# Item 2
# Item 3...
=Unordered Lists=
-
- Item 1
-
- Item 2
-
- Item 3...
=Description Lists=
Description lists, used to pair terms and definitions or points with an idea, can be rendered using the colon ":" and semicolon ";" respectively
; ; Term/Idea
: : Definition 1/Point 1
: : Definition 2/Point 2
: : Definition 3/Point 3...

Awesome, thank you!
Cheers! Hopefully this will be a help to frequent board users ^-^
EDIT: Special characters are not supported
Agree, very useful, thanks!
Hopefully in the next upcoming AT update we can have a rich text formating options panel. Oldschool is ok, but sometimes not convinient.
