Re: [Phpwiki-talk] Localisation of content pages / wiki words?

[Reini U. <ru...@x-...>]

we came to this conclusion: don't do it with plugins.
we do it with virtual paths on 
http://phpwiki.sf.net/demo/(en|de|es|fr|...)/ and do the linking manually.

of course it would be fine to have a tool which helps in localizing new 
wikipages by lookup in a wikiword dictionary.
