Exporting Lists to MediaWiki / Wikipedia

[Tim Pritlove]

Hi,

from time to time i use the copy and paste text export of OmniOutliner 
to bring Outlines in Wiki systems. The current configuration works fine 
for wikis like TWiki, where a list is generated like this

    * first level is three spaces, asterisk, space
       * second level is six spaces, asterisk space
       * and so on
          * this is level three
    * back to the first level

But then I tried using the same hack for Wikipedia (MediaWiki) software 
which I am using a lot recently (both the public system and for 
internal projects), but the list syntax is different:

*first level is just one asterisk at the beginning of the line
**second level is another asterisk
**and so on
***this is level three
*back to the first level

I found it impossible to configure OO to export the outline to a format 
like that. It would be great if an addition could be made to the 
software to allow for MediaWiki/UseMod syntax.

Also, having only one setting for text export is problematic when 
working with different systems. It would be great to be able to save 
the text export setting and select the current from a list or popup.

So, to give an example, I would set up my OO to have presets for

- copying it to an e-mail (human readable)
- TWiki syntax (first example)
- MediaWiki/UseMod syntax (second

Greetings
Tim
