* Running "ikiwiki --setup ikiwiki.setup" doesn't do anything. I have edited ikiwiki.setup to
my local settings. There are no errors but neither does anything get compiled. An ikiwiki

anything else I get to use a decent editor.

+# asciidoc or txt2tags ?
+
+Any plugins or support for using asciidoc or txt2tags as the wiki language and/or exporting to asciidoc or txt2tags?
+
+> No, but it should be quite easy to write such a plugin. The otl plugin

+(If not could use asciidoc or txt2tags mentioned above to generated LaTeX.)

+

+# Show differences before saving page?
+
+It would be nice to be able to have a button to show "Differences" (or "Show Diff") when
+editing a page. Is that an option that can be enabled?
