Anyone tried editing haskell.org's wiki as text, using:
I have now, and it works. To test it out, do the following: - install wikipediafs (it's in Debian's repo., and probably others) - $ mkdir wikis (or some other name) - $ mount.wikipediafs wikis - $ fusermount -u wikis This creates a default configuration file in ~/.wikipediafs/config.xml. Edit this, and insert the haskell.org info: <site> <dirname>haskellwiki</dirname> <host>www.haskell.org</host> <basename>/haskellwiki/index.php</basename> <username>USERNAME</username> <password>PASSWORD</password> </site> Fill in USERNAME and PASSWORD appropriately. Now, mount the directory again: - $ mount.wikipediafs wikis - $ cd wikis/haskellwiki There are no files (yet), but when you try to access a file, it will appear. - $ head Humor ... will print the first few lines of the Humor page. Now you can edit it and save the file, and the changes will be in the wiki. Happy editing. (You can apparently include a summary of your changes in the file, as documentation for the change. See the mount.wikipediafs man page.)
