Tamar,
I'm glad that you're enjoying WikiText, and it's very exciting to hear
that it will help astronauts get into space!
Generation of PDF should create the normal PDF structure bookmarks[1].
This will enable PDF viewers to display a table of contents. If you
want a table of contents in the document content itself, then you should
take a look at the Textile language which has a markup extension[2]
{toc} for generating a table of contents in the document. If you're
happy with TracWiki, it's possible to extend the trac wiki format to add
support for generating a table of contents[3].
Regards,
David
