https://sourceforge.net/p/fll-sw/wiki/SetupInstructions/

The top list is showing literal asterik characters instead of the list bullets. Also farther down I've moved my sublists in an additional 4 spaces and I'm not get sublists.

    Fixed the problem. I didn't realize that I needed a blank line to start off a list.

    Yeah, that's one of those fun little details of Markdown. Also note that you need to have a regular paragraph before or after lists, you can't go directly from a list to a code block for example. Unfortunate.
