It is roughly based on the `otl` plugin but uses `mktemp` to create temporary files since `hnb` has no "quiet" switch and otherwise the hnb version number and other as well as the output file name always would be in the output itself.

+* Had a look at that one as example before writing the hnb plugin, but hnb has different input/output characteristics. I would prefer another solution, too, but as long as it works and is secure, I'm fine with the current (fixed :-) ) solution -- [[XTaran]].
Other problems:
* Use of shell mktemp from perl is suboptimal. File::Temp would be better.
+ * Fixed with version 0.02 -- [[XTaran]]
* The htmlize hook should not operate on the contents of `$params{page}.hnb`.
The content that needs to be htmlized is passed in to the hook in
