Wiki’s and Textile

Posted in web on September 29th, 2004 by larcher – Be the first to comment

I started using Instiki on my laptop at work to take notes .. actually, I’ve been using it as a replacement for spiral notebooks, since I’m on my third one this year. Trying to kick that pen and paper habit. I knew a wiki would be great for this, but Instiki is especially nifty: easy to install (download, unzip, run), has a built in webserver (no apache needed), and uses Textile

So the side effect is I’ve gotten used to Textile, so I had to install the textile blosxom plugin.

Downside(s) to instiki so far: doesn’t save the wiki pages as plaintext files like Kwiki does .. maybe Kwiki has a textile plugin?
