[[!template id=plugin name=txt author="[[Gabriel]]"]] [[!tag type/format]]

This plugin makes ikiwiki treat files with names ending in ".txt" as wiki pages.

Unlike other [[type/format]] plugins, no formatting of markup in txt files is done; the file contents is displayed to the user as-is, with html markup characters such as ">" escaped.

The only exceptions are that [[WikiLinks|ikiwiki/WikiLink]] and [[directives|ikiwiki/directive]] are still expanded by ikiwiki, and that, if the [[!cpan URI::Find]] perl module is installed, URLs in the txt file are converted to hyperlinks.


As a special case, a file robots.txt will be copied intact into the destdir, as well as creating a wiki page named "robots".
