| - One can use the freeware NoteTab Light from www.notetab.com to make the city names into clickable links by adding wikitext. It can also be used to remove any blank lines, and to set up the city list for counting by the wiki software. NoteTab is a quick download and install. Paste the city list in a blank NoteTab page, and then do the following steps in order. 1. To remove the blank lines replace all pairs of the hidden line-break code, ^p^p with ^p - It can be done all at once with the replace command from the search menu. Select "all" from the "find and replace" dialog box. It only takes a second to replace them all. You may have to do it again if there is more than one blank line between any cities. You can not make the line-break code visible with the freeware version of NoteTab (NoteTab LIght), but this find-and-replace method works anyway. 2. Then, be sure the city list is in alphabetical order. Go to the Modify/Lines/Sort submenu and click on "Ascending." 3. Then, to get the lines numbered by the wiki software add the pound symbol, #, in front of each city. To do so for all the cities at once replace ^p with ^p# 4. To make the city names clickable replace ^p with ]]^p - and then replace # with #[[5. Paste the city list in the wiki page, and save the page. The wiki software will replace the pound (#) symbol with a number for each city. The brackets make the city names clickable.
