+
+[WMD](http://wmd-editor.com/) is a What You See Is What You Mean editor for
+[[mdwn]]. This plugin makes WMD be used for editing pages in the wiki.
+
+To use the plugin, you will need to install WMD. Download the [WMD
+source](http://wmd-editor.com/downloads/wmd-1.0.1.zip). In that zip file
+you'll find a few example html files, a readme and `wmd` directory. Create
+a 'wmd' subdirectory in the ikiwiki `underlaydir` directory (ie `sudo mkdir
+/usr/share/ikiwiki/wmd`). Move the `wmd` directory into the directory you
+made. You should now have a `wmd/wmd/wmd.js` file as well as some other
+javascript files and an images directory in the same place.
+
+Note that the WMD plugin does **not** handle ikiwiki directives. For this
+reason the normal `preview` button remains.
