section(ChangeLog, `- 26 Dec 2002: First release
- 28 Aug 2003: Patch from Daniel OHuiginn : variable $programname to hold the name of the program, so it can be
changed (e.g. some servers demand that scripts end .cgi), added a regexp to make links from WikiWords with double capitalisation
and no parentheses, and regexps for *bold* with asterisks and _italics_
with underscores, put a few more comments into the code. Thanks to him for this patch. ')
section(Download and installation, `If you are interested, here is the script. To install it, you will need:
- some version of Perl
- a Web server that support CGI, for instance Apache
- optionally, BerkeleyDB to improve database request performance
- optionally again, mod_perl. This will dramatically improve the performance of your Wiki, especially under high loads
Note that you don't need to have a special DBM installed like MySQL or PostgreSQL.
Also note that this program is covered by the General Public License, so don't hesitate to modify and/or redistribute it.')
