NAME

ikiwiki-transition - transition ikiwiki pages to new syntaxes

SYNOPSIS

ikiwiki-transition prefix_directives page.mdwn...

DESCRIPTION

ikiwiki-transition aids in converting ikiwiki pages when there's a major change in ikiwiki syntax.

Currently only one such transition is handled, the prefix_directives mode converts an ikiwiki page from the old preprocessor directive syntax, requiring a space, to the new syntax, prefixed by '!'.

Preprocessor directives which already use the new syntax will remain unchanged.

Note that if the page contains wiki links with spaces, which some older versions of ikiwiki accepted, the prefix_directives transition will treat these as preprocessor directives and convert them.
