I can't look at this script until tonight, but I'll be sure to do so. Swaroop, could you please convert a few tips using your script and them post them on the wiki? I would love to see the final output. Also, I just wanted to say that it looks like we won't have to write any sort of upload script. The Google wiki is built on top of an svn repository, so we'll just have to check in our converted files to publish them. I think that this feature will be especially nice if we find ourselves doing the conversion multiple times. Thanks again Swaroop! Tom Purl
