Also, there are already some documentation files that have been put into the wiki and formatted to match it. Another thought, is I think that we should consider using a separate wiki namespace for documentation that is meant for exporting to the server and/or client source tree.

Not a hard thing to code parsing to generate, but does require a bit of smartness in the coding :)) Alex Schultz _______________________________________________ crossfire mailing list crossfire@metalforge.org http://mailman.metalforge.org/mailman/listinfo/crossfire
