-> No, but it's fairly easy to write such tools in perl. For example, to
-> list all users in the user database:
-
-       joey@kodama:~/src/joeywiki/.ikiwiki>perl -le 'use Storable; my $userinfo=Storable::retrieve("userdb"); print $_ foreach keys %$userinfo'

-> To list each user's email address:
-
-       joey@kodama:~/src/joeywiki/.ikiwiki>perl -le 'use Storable; my $userinfo=Storable::retrieve("userdb"); print $userinfo->{$_}->{email} foreach keys %$userinfo'
-       
-       joey@kitenet.net

-> Editing is simply a matter of changing values and calling Storable::store().
-> I've not written actual utilities to do this yet because I've only needed

->>>    perl -le 'use Storable; my $userinfo=Storable::retrieve("userdb"); delete $$userinfo{"joey"}; Storable::lock_store($userinfo, "userdb")'
->>> I suppose I should stop being lame and create a command line tool wrapping up these operations.. --[[Joey]]

+Where are the upgrade steps for RecentChanges change from CGI to static feed?
+I run multiple ikiwiki-powered sites on multiple servers, but today I just upgraded one to 2.32.3.

+Any suggestions?
