Rubies & Extremos:

While still a Femto-Wiki, MWR has this feature list:

Image transclusion, with back-links.
Nested outline mode.
The standard Spirit of Wiki markup tags.
RecentChanges.
Embedded graphs, including links inside the nodes.
Search (with regices).
RemoteLink completion.

All knitted together test-first so the code stays fresh and small no matter
how many features it absorbs!

Thanks, looks quite interesting. Are there any docs explaining how to download,
install, and configure the wiki?

Does it do versioning?

This page covers that, under “No”:

I’d just add a script that pulls the ripcord on CVS each time a file saves.

Someone (possibly me) seems to have flamed the process here:

    http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WikiForDummies

Uh, you have to know Ruby, and how to tweak the most basic TCP/IP settings.
But the code’s a good read. :wink:

That part’s OK; wikis per se aren’t too hard to figure out. But I’m not so sure
everyone will know what to make of a page titled

“CVS log for ruedit/ruedit/miniWiki.rb”

There’s also nothing saying you need to download trace.rb (until you run the
code and see the error message and figure out it’s not part of the standard
distribution), or where to find it.

Thanks,

James
