Title: Trac Wiki converted to Pelican Markdown
URL:
save_as: index.html
Trac Wiki converted to Pelican Markdown
This is a dummy landing page for a Trac Wiki site converted to
Markdown and fed through Pelican to create a static web site.
See the conversion scripts that produced
this for details on
the conversion process.  Be warned that it's a lot of nasty regular
expressions, because nothing other than Trac really understand's
Track's Wiki format.
Trac's landing page is always called WikiStart.
Pelican's automatically-generated index is the
default Pelican landing page, but we had to move it aside to make room
for this one.
For the initial conversion we just use Pelican's default theme.
There's a lot of room to adjust the appearance, and a lot of
example themes already available for Pelican.
Similarly, we don't do anything with Pelican's "category" mechanism
because it has no direct analogue in TracWiki.  See the Pelican
documentation for details on
how to use the category mechanism, or how to disable it completely.
Feel free to clean all of this up, this page is just a placeholder to
make it easy to navigate the converted wiki until a human takes over.
