ikiwiki also has an older syntax for preprocessor directives, which requires a
space in directives to distinguish them from [[wikilinks|wikilink]]. This
syntax has several disadvantages: it requires a space after directives with no
parameters (such as `\[[!pagecount ]]`), and it prohibits spaces in
parameters (such as `\[[pagecount ]]`), and it prohibits spaces in
[[wikilinks|wikilink]]. ikiwiki now provides the `!`-prefixed syntax shown
above as the preferred alternative. However, ikiwiki still supports wikis
using the older syntax, if their setup files disable the `prefix_directives`
option. For backward compatibility with existing wikis, this option currently
defaults to off, so ikiwiki uses the old directive syntax; however, future
versions of ikiwiki will turn this on by default.
