Little patch for Mediawiki external editor
Tuesday 6 June 2006 - Filed under Software
For the OpenSolaris governance discussions, the community is using the wiki at genunix.org. The genunix team installed Mediawiki, used most famously for the Wikipedia, to support communal editing.
I’m a creature of Vim, and am quite happy with the
recently released Vim 7. Tying the external editor feature of Wikipedia
to Vim is straightforward, if you install Erik Möller’s ee
script—and tweak it a little.
Below you’ll find a modified version that respects the http_proxy
setting, handles the case where no matching site is present in your
ee.ini file, and adds a configuration option to not append the “using
an external editor” string to your article’s change summary.
