Wiki Argument Variables

This syntax represents some variables which can be used in Tiki, like: user, page, itemId. With a simple Wiki Syntax using double curly brackets around them, (once this preference is enabled in "Editing & Plugins" control panel) you can put them in your wiki syntax enabled text area and have them to become automatically replaced by their actual value anywhere where they are used.
