===============================================================================
1 Fountainwiki introduction *Fountainwiki-introduction*
===============================================================================
The purpose of Fountainwiki is to provide a note-taking facility that does not
require any deviation from strict Fountain syntax.
Fountainwiki turns CHARACTER NAMES, ## Section headers and [[comments]] into
WikiWords. Simply press 'enter', and a new file opens for keeping notes. These
notes can be simple text files, or tap into other availabie file formats and
systems.
The indentation is offered as an option instead of as a separate indentation
file because it is non-standard (does not work like a normal indentation
file). It is one of many functions designed to aid in Fountain screenwriting.
===============================================================================
2 Fountainwiki navigation *Fountainwiki-navigation*
===============================================================================
Fountainwiki navigation is modelled after the powerful Vim plugin, Vimwiki.
This allows good workflow integration with Vimwiki, and in any case the
commands and shortcuts are quick and relatively intuitive.
Place your cursor on a link, press 'enter' to proceed; tap 'backspace' to
return to the previous file. This applies to plain text files as well as
Vimwiki.
While browsing files subordinate to the screenplay, the screenplay becomes the
defacto home wiki. Tap 'backspace' twice from any of the subordinate files to
return.
If using Vimwiki: since Vimwiki's navigation only applies to Vimwiki files,
you _must_ tap 'backspace' twice to return to the screenplay.
===============================================================================
3 Fountainwiki words *Fountainwiki-words*
===============================================================================
Fountainwiki Words are sections of Fountain syntax that Fountainwiki make
clickable. Specifically, CHARACTER NAMES, ## Section headers, and [[notes]].
True WikiWords -- conjoined capitalized words -- are not part of Fountain
syntax, and are not made clickable through Fountainwiki, since they should not
exist in your screenplay.
There is no visible designation of what is clickable, apart from the existing
syntax:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
## Scene One - Easton goes west -- clickable
EXT. COURTYARD - DAY -- not clickable
A pleasant scene. -- not clickable
EASTON -- clickable
(absent-mindedly) -- not clickable
Where did that teapot go? -- not clickable
He timidly steps forward. [[Easton's costume]] -- clickable
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fountainwiki also wikifies subordinate files (except for wiki and viki files).
These links are more direct; type a full filename, to a file of the same type,
and this becomes clickable.
If using plain text files, for example, your link would be something like
'newfile.txt'. Put your cursor on it and click 'enter'. Tap 'backspace' to
return. It doesn't matter if the filename is surrounded by brackets or syntax.
If using wiki or viki, the subordinate files use their own default linking
scheme, the standard WikiWord.
===============================================================================
4 Fountain indentation *Fountain-indentation*
===============================================================================
Indent Fountain files three different ways:
* Automatically, when saving the file.
* Hit 'enter' while in normal mode.
* Use the command :FnIndent
Settings for textwidth and tabstop are controlled independently from other
filetypes in your Vim session.
===============================================================================
5 Fountainwiki options *Fountainwiki-options*
===============================================================================
Set the filetype you wish to use with your screenplay. Top three suggestions,
and why: 'wiki' if you want the full power of Vimwiki (must have the plugin
installed); 'markdown' for compatability (Fountain is based on Markdown); and
'txt', because you can't go wrong with plain old text. Default is text:
>
let g:Fountainwiki_Card_Extension = 'txt'
<
NOTE There is no built-in provision for updating old files to a new extension,
if changed.
Lowercase-only filenames (1), or uppercase OK (0). Default shown:
>
let g:Fountainwiki_Lowercase_Filename = 1
<
NOTE If uppercase OK, CHARACTER NAME filenames will be allcaps.
Filename token. Leave blank, this will not be used after all.
>
let g:Fountainwiki_Filename_Token = ''
<
Open FountainwikiWord link full window (1), default shown. (0) results in
less popular sidebar option.
>
let g:Fountainwiki_Card_Only = 1
<
If you choose the sidebar, you can adjust its width and position: left side
(0), right side (1). Third option set to (1) closes extra windows to keep
things clean, (0) does nothing. Defaults shown.
>
let g:Fountainwiki_Card_Width = 48
let g:Fountainwiki_Card_Right = 1
let g:Fountainwiki_Card_StayOpen = 1
<
===============================================================================
6 Fountain indentation options *Fountain-indentation-options*
===============================================================================
Auto-indent scheme: 0 = off, 1 = on (default).
>
let g:Fountainwiki_Auto_Indent = 0
<
Textwidth for Fountain file buffers (default shown).
>
let g:Fountainwiki_Textwidth = '0'
<
Tabstop for Fountain file buffers (default shown).
>
let g:Fountainwiki_Tabstop = '8'
<
Tweak the number of tabs, or change to spaces (defaults shown):
>
let g:Fountainwiki_Character_Indent = '\t\t'
let g:Fountainwiki_Parenthetical_Indent = '\t'
let g:Fountainwiki_Transition_Indent = '\t\t\t\t\t\t'
let g:Fountainwiki_Centered_Indent = '\t\t\t\t'
<
===============================================================================
