Actually I'm not sure if there are users using the wikiword feature out there. This feature hasn't been requested much. Personally I only wrote it mostly to demonstrate the Rendering Transformation feature and not because this was a feature often requested. I'm all for improving it though. Thanks -Vincent PS: BTW you should post to the users list and not the developers list for this. This would have also allowed other users to chime in and tell us if they use this feature… :) _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
