Thanks for your script--it's clearly helpful. However, there is still a loss of information caused by the several possible meanings of hyphens in the constructed URL:
1. Existing part of a directory or file name 2. Substitute for "/" in $RELATIVE_PATH 3. Section separator, as between Ubuntu-hardy and linux-2.6.24 Let's consider a script that might process your table. While it is certainly possible to reconstruct the full pathname (with slashes) of a file, ambiguous hyphens complicate the script and create more work. The single biggest improvement would be to address #2: e.g., instead of using "-" as a separator in a path, use "--". The key thing is to choose a character or string that is *rarely found* in file or directory names (i.e., with the same essential characteristic as "/"). "--" is not pretty and does not work 100% of the time. However, wiki pages will *appear* no worse to the typical wiki user, and the cases that are still ambiguous should be very few. *Leading capitals* could also serve the same purpose. In any case, the table format is *already* a big improvement. :) _______________________________________________ gNewSense-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnewsense-users
