Is that right?
As a page editor or user, I would expect to be able to say "count=20" and have the pagelist chunking give me 20 results per page. I wouldn't expect that I'd have to adjust the start/end points on each subsequent request. Or, to look at it another way, Google uses a "start=" parameter to indicate where the next 'group' of results are to begin. I'd like the same for PmWiki. > That makes sense to me to have it as a PV.
