README.markdown @ d9ae1a68cda2 default tip
Downcase titles in lookup table I know this isn't i18n friendly, but this thing is only for me and it will make my life significantly easier, so too bad.

# mw `mw` stands for any/all of the following: * My Wiki * Mini Wiki * Make Wiki * Markdown Wiki License: GPLv3. ## Design Wiki pages are vanilla Markdown files, because writing in any other format is awful and version control is good. Metadata will be a single Lisp list at the beginning of the file, read with `safe-read`. No directories. Just one big list of Markdown files that get transformed into `.html` files one-by-one. Links should be relative so you can serve them from a subdirectory and it'll still work. The home page is special-cased, its metadata includes metadata for the entire wiki (title, link color, etc). Linking is special-cased because it's so common. In addition to vanilla Markdown links, there's an extra layer of postprocessing: * `[Some Page]()`: looks up the destination by page title. * `[Some Page](some-slug)`: looks up the destination by page slug. Pages can have `extra-titles` and `extra-slugs`, so you can alias really common pages to avoid typing. Anything in `static` will be copied over verbatim, e.g. for images and such. The output will be static, vanilla HTML files that can be served with anything. No Javascript required. ## TODO * Check for deleted files and delete them from build directory? * Maybe an actual CLI?
