<p>The formatting was largely freeform, with a bit of markup ('===' around header, bars separating date, <place> - <description>, and who) which allows the troggle import script to read it correctly. The underlines show who wrote the entry. There is also a format for time-underground info so it can be automagically tabulated.</p>

<p>There were also several previous (different) styles of using HTML. The one we are using now is the 5th variant. These older variants are steadily being reformatted into the current HTML format so that we only need to maintain the code for one parser.
