I'm using 1.2, but if you open transform.php, search for '', make a copy
of the two lines and replace '' with `` and <em> with <tt> you won't go
far wrong...

For the GtmWiki, I have two complimentary backup(ish) strategies.
Firstly, I have a CGI containing the following (note that I use custom
table names):

| #!/bin/sh
|
| echo "Content-type: text/plain"
| echo
|
| mysqldump 2>&1 -uUSER -pPASS DATABASE \
|                --add-drop-table --add-locks --quick --lock-tables \
|     wiki_pages \
|     wiki_archive \
|     wiki_links \
|     wiki_score \
|     wiki_hitcount \
|     wiki_hottopics

which gets called every night and the results saved. Secondly, I hacked
savepage.php to email me a diff of the edits, so a) I don't have to check
RecentChanges, and b) I have an evolving record of what changes.
