    when I input "http://www.cwc.oulu.fi/~hernia" and saved it. the link is always http://www.cwc.oulu.fi/hernia. My phpwiki omits '~', so how can I make it point to the right address?

      If you dont want to patch it you can write "%7E" in place of "~"

      e.g.

      http://www.hgb-leipzig.de/~francis/

      changes to

      http://www.hgb-leipzig.de/%7Efrancis/

      The patch somehow didn*t work for me

        Currently you have to use them inside []

        [http://www.hgb-leipzig.de/~francis/]
        or use old markup

        in new markup ~ escapes the next character.
