This is a bit hijacking the thread I started since it’s different topic
altogether… :)
Regarding your use case, I know Thomas wanted to have that too, using the
Filter Module, see:
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Filter+Module
Specifically I think that’s the intent of the "XWiki instance input and output
(xwiki+instance/1.1)” Filter. It doesn’t have any documentation ATM, not sure
why. It’s probably missing a UI ATM but I guess it’s scriptable for now. Thomas
would know more.
Thanks
