Note: The information below about running this wiki on CentOS is out of date. It's now running on Ubuntu using the standard package.

To get autolink working using ikiwiki 3.20180228-1 on Ubuntu 18.04:

- add `$flags |= Text::Markdown::Discount::MKD_AUTOLINK();` to /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki/Plugin/mdwn.pm
- `cd /srv/wiki-srcdir && ikiwiki --setup wiki.setup`

This wiki is running [ikiwiki](http://ikiwiki.info) on CentOS 6 with an [RPM](http://yum.greptilian.com/RPMS/noarch/ikiwiki-3.20120202-1.el6.noarch.rpm) I rebuild from a [ikiwiki Fedora spec file](https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/ikiwiki).  I also had to rebuild a number of dependencies, which you can find at http://yum.greptilian.com

After installing the RPMs, I ran `ikiwiki --setup wiki.setup` on [[/wiki.setup]].

The source of this wiki ([[markdown]], mostly) is available at http://git.greptilian.com/?p=wiki.git

That's where you can find my tweaks to the default page template, for example: http://git.greptilian.com/?p=wiki.git;a=history;f=templates/page.tmpl

In order to get autolinking working (MKD_AUTOLINK per http://www.pell.portland.or.us/~orc/Code/discount/ ), I made this change to http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/SEKIMURA/Text-Markdown-Discount-0.02/Discount.xs before running `make`:

As http://ikiwiki.info/plugins/mdwn/ says, ikiwiki prefers to use Text::Markdown::Discount, if it's available.

## Installing ikiwiki on Mac OS X with local::lib

I'm using `perl Makefile.PL INSTALL_BASE= PREFIX=$HOME/perl5` as suggested at http://ikiwiki.info/install/discussion/

I installed dependencies with `cpanm`.

`make` worked fine but `make install` showed...

    /bin/sh: msgmerge: command not found
    unable to run msgmerge
    /bin/sh: msgfmt: command not found
    unable to run msgfmt

... so I ran `brew link gettext` per https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/issues/7621

## Previewing changes to this wiki locally before a git push

## Hack on table plugin

The following hack is for ikiwiki 3.20130904.1ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 14.04 for when the first column of CSV data starts with a "#" or "##" (such as IRC channels or hashtags) and you don't want h1 or h2 tags. Discuss at http://ikiwiki.info/forum/table_plugin_and_Markdown_side_effects_on_data/
