There are some rough spots yes, but this looks exactly as I'd +hoped it would, and seems close to being ready for merging. + +A few observations, in approximate order of priority: + +* What's the copyright and license of showdown? Please include that from + the original zip file. +* What happens if there are concurrent edits? The CGI.pm modification to + save an edited wikiwyg part doesn't seem to check if the source file has + changed in the meantime, so if the part has moved around, it might + replace the wrong part on saving. I've not tested this. +* The stuff you have in destdir now really belongs in basewiki so it's + copied over to any destdir. +* Personally, I'm not sure if I need double-click to edit a section in my + wiki, but I'd love it if the edit form in the cgi could use wikiwyg. Seems + like both of these could be independent options. Doable, I'm sure? +* It would be good to move as much as possible of the inlined javascript in + wikiwyg.tmpl out to a separate .js file to save space in the rendered + pages. +* Both this plugin and the [[Gallery_Plugin_for_Ikiwiki/]] are turning out + to need to add a bunch of pages to the basewiki. I wonder what would be a + good way to do this, without bloating the basewiki when the plugins arn't + used. Perhaps the underlaydir concept needs to be expanded so it's a set + of directories, which plugins can add to. Perhaps you should work with + arpitjain on this so both plugins can benefit. (The smiley plugin would + also benefit from this..) +* Is there any way of only loading enough of wikiwyg by default to catch + the section double-clicks, and have it load the rest on the fly? I'm + thinking about initial page load time when visiting a wikiwyg-using wiki + for the first time. I count 230k or so of data that a browser downloads + in that case.. + +--[[Joey]] -- cgit v1.2.3
