That is fixed now. Was a problem with the script that produced the page. > Yes! In option (b), you have to change every '/' to '__OR__', so > you may as well change the titles to something good now.

The cool thing with the WikipediaFS is that i can do scripting on the pages _as if _ they were on my disk! My general approach: First i downloaded all tips to my machine. I startet with the script vimtips.py and hacked it alot. The script uses a perl-module that converts html to wiki-markup. But I still have problems with some regexes: stable regexes for 1500 pages are not easy to do. I have to clean up the script and will post it here, because I guess there are some regex gurus around ... Thanks, Sebastian.
