No, there is nothing in Trac that does this since wiki page names have no semantics attached to them (camel case is only used for automatic links, nothing more). You could certainly make a plugin to do this with redirects though. You could probably also do something hilarious with mod_rewrite if you use Apache. --Noah --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Users" group.
