A problem arises when you try to use a conventional wiki for multiple projects - you have to be careful to choose sufficienty verbose titles for the pages, so that you don't use up all the good names for one project. So I think I will make it possible to partition parts of the wiki in actual directories on the server. That way different directories can have different permissions too. At work, we used mediawiki for a while, and then pretty soon people wanted to have some stuff be public, and some be private to our department, and we didn't find a way to do it. So we had to make the whole thing private (using a .htaccess file). What does Spiffy have for security? See the spiffy-access-file parameter. It's a much more flexible and powerful access mechanism then .htaccess. It allows you to define a function that determines if one is allowed to view the file or not. (it returns a boolean, #t if access allowed, #f if denied) Maybe people who are more familiar with Apache could contribute some macros that it easier to specify access in a declarative fashion. For course-grained access control, there's the spiffy-deny-access parameter, which is a regex. Access is denied to any file that matches the regex.

Speaking of wikis: I've put together yet another feeble attempt of writing web software (boy, am I modest, or what?) at this place: http://galinha.ucpel.tche.br/coop It's a regular wiki, currently with a rather llimited set of editing commands and it uses some homegrown markup. I could have used Alejandro's excellent stream-wiki, but the idea is to provide a simple to process internal format, since I'd like to support programmatic access (via some HTTP-based API, or even by allowing sandboxed Scheme code - I'm not sure yet). That's really nice! :-) Ideas and comments are naturally welcome. And additions to the wiki, too, of course! Some suggestions: - syntax highlight for scheme code - Link the RSS feed at the start-page or at the top of recent-changes (I just deleted a text suggesting an RSS feed because I hadn't seen it at the bottom of the recent-changes page. :-)) - wiki syntax for lists - add a link to the wiki syntax page at the footer of the pages (wiki help or something like this). (It doesn't feature a powered-by-spiffy-logo yet, but will definitely do so in the next days. :-) I've put the ones we have so far at http://galinha.ucpel.tche.br/coop?page=Spiffy%20logo Please, somebody make them look better! :-) Best wishes, Mario ___ Chicken-users mailing list Chicken-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
Re: [Chicken-users] stripping accents
On Sat, 11 Mar 2006, Sunnan wrote: Just to make sure, to prevent duplication of effort: is there an easy way to strip accents from unicode characters with Chicken? Not that I know of. Proper case mapping is included in the utf8 egg, but not this functionality. Failing that, is there an easy way to translate characterns similar to unix tr or sed's y/// expression? From the CHICKEN manual, extras unit: -- procedure: string-translate (string-translate STRING FROM [TO]) Returns a fresh copy of `STRING' with characters matching `FROM' translated to `TO'. If `TO' is omitted, then matching characters are removed. `FROM' and `TO' may be a character, a string or a list. If both `FROM' and `TO' are strings, then the character at the same position in `TO' as the matching character in `FROM' is substituted. This procedure is unicode aware when using the utf8 egg. cu, Thomas ___ Chicken-users mailing list Chicken-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
Re: [Chicken-users] Configuring readline prompt
On 3/10/06, Peter Wright [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, Is there a way to include this sort of information in the readline string defined with make-gnu-readline-port? I have added support for `(repl-prompt)' in the readline egg (if the prompt argument to make-gnu-readline-port is omitted, it uses that parameter). To have history access (#NNN) you must invoke csi with -:c (history is only kept when stdin is a tty port). If someone has a suggestion to handle this better, please tell. cheers, felix ___ Chicken-users mailing list Chicken-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
