I think this is a great idea to improve flexibility. Can it be done maintaining backward compatibility with recipes that use $PageTextVarPattern? I haven't looked at it in detail, but it looks like the numbering of the subpatterns is going to get messed up which will require changes to recipes which will mean different versions have to be maintained to support different versions of pmwiki and etc. But hopefully I'm missing the solution... -Peter _______________________________________________ pmwiki-users mailing list pmwiki-users@pmichaud.com http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users
