Actually, these characters appear very rarely in addresses, and at least with Firefox and Chrome, when you copy such address of a page/link/picture, the correct, encoded address is copied to the clipboard and you can paste it without problems in PmWiki. Among the rare cases, there is one which happens more often: pages of Wikipedia can have parentheses in their addresses and authors with MSIE or Opera need to encode them. So, about including the recipe into the core, if many people use it, it is possible. Petko > On 11/1/11, Petko Yotov <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hello.
