I was wondering if the Insert Link button could be provided with +a more elegant solution than to have this code snippet to be filled in by +hand every time you use it to insert links for attached media files. And in +fact there apparently is a way in attachment.pm. + +While I can see that it is not needed for everyone inserting links to +attached media files to have ul- and li-tags surrounding the link itself as +well as being supplied with an id fill in, for me it would be the most +straight forward solution. Pitty is I don't have the time to wrap my head +around perl to write a patch myself. Is there any way to have this made an +option which can be called via templates? + +For sure I would like to donate for such a patch as well as I will do it +for ikiwiki anyway, because it is such a fine application. + +If you are not familiar with soundmanager2: It is a very straight forward +solution to inline mediafiles, using the usual flash as well as html5 +solutions (used by soundcloud.com, freesound.org and the like).
