One down, one billion or so to go
Finished my Wiki-like Movable Type
plugin. Now I can do things like
[LINK TEXT|URL] and **strong** (to make things strong). It
also does automatic paragraphs, like MT’s built-in functionality but
without inserting <br>’s. It’s probably bit slow, has no
documentation, and undoubtedly has some bugs. Also requires
HTML::Parser (possibly a very recent one) and Time::HiRes.
You can try and tell me about bugs and maybe I’ll try and fix them.
There’s more functionality I could add in now, but it’s all
complicated by the fact that I don’t have the one-paragraph-per-line
model that I think Wiki tends to like. Because of this, things like
making lists becomes nasty: I’d have to have a token to terminate the
list, probably. Or force it all to be indented.
Going to work on the archive pages. After that, this web log should be in order.
Before I forget, my PSGML patch does have a problem figuring out which
fixed attributes to add when you C-c C-a to edit attributes;
namely, I think it inserts all of them. I’ll have to (hopefully) look
in to this later.
