The quicktags module provides a tinymce-button-style solution for formatting wiki posts. Quicktags adds buttons to the textarea and uses on-the-fly generated javascript. It is not a wysiwyg editor, but something far simpler: It simply inserts the basic code into your textarea.
Here is a screenshot of quicktags in action:

Here is some modified code (from quicktags.module) that creates quicktags buttons for italic, bold, wiki heading 1,2,3 and url. Note: The tag close function - the checkmark icon - is added automatically at the end of the list.
$items = array(
'ed_italic' => array(
'name' => 'Italic',
'prefix' => "\'\'",
'suffix' => "\'\'",
'accesskey' => 'i',
'weight' => 10,
'icon' => $path .'ed_italic.png',
),
'ed_bold' => array(
'name' => 'Bold',
'prefix' => "\'\'\'",
'suffix' => "\'\'\'",
'accesskey' => 'b',
'weight' => 20,
'icon' => $path .'ed_bold.png',
),
'ed_header' => array(
'name' => 'Header Level One',
'prefix' => '==',
'suffix' => '==',
'accesskey' => '1',
'weight' => 30,
'icon' => $path .'button_headline.png',
),
'ed_block' => array(
'name' => 'Header Level Two',
'prefix' =>'===',
'suffix' => '===',
'accesskey' => '2',
'weight' => 40,
'icon' => $path .'button_headline2.png',
),
'ed_blocka' => array(
'name' => 'Header Level Three',
'prefix' =>'=====',
'suffix' => '=====',
'accesskey' => '3',
'weight' => 42,
'icon' => $path .'button_headline3.png',
),
'ed_link' => array(
'name' => 'link',
'prefix' =>'[',
'suffix' => ']',
'accesskey' => 'l',
'weight' => 50,
'icon' => $path .'ed_link.png',
),
'ed_italic' => array(
'name' => 'Italic',
'prefix' => "\'\'",
'suffix' => "\'\'",
'accesskey' => 'i',
'weight' => 10,
'icon' => $path .'ed_italic.png',
),
'ed_bold' => array(
'name' => 'Bold',

'ed_block' => array(

'suffix' => '===',
'accesskey' => '2',

'accesskey' => '3',

The module requires a patch to add functionality to determine which content types the quicktags will appear on: http://drupal.org/node/62100#comment-403430
Once you apply the patch, do the following here: /admin/settings/quicktags
Under 'Show quicktags on specific pages', insert the following code so that the quicktags only appear on wiki pages:
<?php
$match = FALSE;
/* this section controls visibility on EXISTING content */
$types = array('wiki' => 1,);
if (arg(0) == 'node' && is_numeric(arg(1))) {
$nid = arg(1);
$node = node_load(array('nid' => $nid));
$type = $node->type;
if (isset($types[$type])) {
$match = TRUE;
}
}
/* this section controls visibility on NEW content */
if (strpos(request_uri(),"node/add/wiki"))
{ $match = TRUE;}
return $match;
?>
$match = FALSE;
/* this section controls visibility on EXISTING content */
$types = array('wiki' => 1,);
if (arg(0) == 'node' && is_numeric(arg(1))) {
$nid = arg(1);
$node = node_load(array('nid' => $nid));
$type = $node->type;
if (isset($types[$type])) {
$match = TRUE;
}
}
/* this section controls visibility on NEW content */
if (strpos(request_uri(),"node/add/wiki"))
{ $match = TRUE;}
return $match;
?>
This is important since the buttons you are creating are for wikis formatting only and not for HTML WYSIWYG.
