Pe Wi

PeWi is a seven line PerlLanguage WikiClone from the author of WyPy, written for ShortestWikiContest.

Documentation and so on coming within a day or so: the author just spent all night learning Perl, coding the wiki, and then testing it. Quick instructions:

  1. make a /pewi/ directory
  2. upload pewi as w.cgi
  3. chmod 755 w.cgi and make sure that the script can write to /pewi/
  4. visit /pewi/w?e=HomePage to start creating.

"{" starts a list, "@ " starts a list item, "}" closes a list. Double line break for paragraphs. Links work as normal. -- SeanPalmer

Tried it, can't make it work. I started apache, installed the script in more than one place, made directories, everything I would usually do to make a cgi script work. Would you care to supply more complete instructions?
