… To put it short: an Ikiwiki newbie.

## Wikis
|
|
|
|
Currently, I run a couple of Ikiwiki instances. Namely:
|
|
|
|
* <http://lhc.am-1.org/lhc/>
|
|
— to hold random stuff written by me, my colleagues,
|
|
students, etc.
|
|
|
|
* <http://rsdesne.am-1.org/rsdesne-2010/>
|
|
— for some of the materials related to the
|
|
“Remote Sensing in Education, Science and National
|
|
Economy” (2010-03-29 … 2010-04-10, Altai State
|
|
University) program I've recently participated in as
|
|
an instructor.
|
|
|
|
## Preferences
|
|
|
|
I prefer to use [Lynx][] along with [Emacs][] (via
|
|
`emacsclient`) to work with the wikis. (Note the “Local
|
|
variables” section below.)
|
|
|
|
The things I dislike in the wiki engines are:
|
|
|
|
* the use of home-brew specialized version control systems
|
|
— while there're a lot of much more developed general
|
|
purpose ones;
|
|
|
|
* oversimplified syntax
|
|
— which (to some extent) precludes more sophisticated
|
|
forms of automated processing; in particular, this forces one
|
|
to reformat the material, once complete, to, say, prepare a
|
|
book, or an article, or slides.
|
|
|
|
Out of all the wiki engines I'm familiar with, only Ikiwiki is
|
|
free of the first of these. I hope that it will support more
|
|
elaborate syntaxes eventually.
