MoinMoin processing instructions have the same semantics as in XML: they control the paths taken when processing a page. Processing instructions are lines that start with a "#" character followed by a keyword and optionally some arguments. Two consecutive hash marks at the start of a line are a comment that won't appear in the processed page.

Processing instructions this wiki knows of:

• ## any-text: comment
• #FORMAT format-specifier: defines the input format for this page, known formats are:
  • wiki: default MoinMoin wiki markup
  • plain: normal plain text
  • html: normal html text
  • StructuredText ( not implemented)
• #REDIRECT pagename: redirect to a different page (see PageRedirect)
  
  

All PIs must appear at the very start of a page. An exception are comment PIs, those may appear within a wiki page (but obviously not in pages using other formats).

• #!processor-name: same as #format formatter
• #title title text: set the title of the page to make a more descriptive title.
• #action action name: set the default action instead of the EditText
• #keywords keywords: set the keywords separated by a comma of the Meta Tag
• #redirect url
• #filter filter1 | filter2: apply MoniWikiFilters supported by the MoniWiki 1.1.0 or later
• #postfilter filter1 | filter2: apply PostFilters (v1.1.1 or later)
  
  

See also MoniWikiProcessors for more complete supported #FORMAT list.
