Patrick, thanks for your reply.

As an experiment, I simply used the Linux "touch" command on both wiki.d/.lastmod and my synthetic wiki page. I'm afraid that didn't work - the category page still doesn't see the synthetic page.

Any other thoughts?

Peter

What am I doing wrong?
The indexes aren't being notified that there's a new page that might
need scanning.

Simply have your Perl script also touch/update the .lastmod file in
wiki.d/, and the categories should start seeing your automatically
generated page(s).

In Perl the following will work to update the timestamp of .lastmod:

     open(my $fh, ">", "wiki.d/.lastmod");
     close($fh);

Hope this helps.
