Version 9 of EMJ

Updated 2015-08-31 10:27:49 by EMJ

Most people have their equivalent of this page (those are my initials but it's just an editing handle) redirect to the page whose title is their full name (not necessarily the real one). They then usually have a backrefs meta-tag on that page to show all the pages they have put their handle on. I have made this my main page, with the other redirecting here, since the list of references can then be produced by clicking the page title, and therefore produces the list only when requested.

On 26 May 2014 I pretty much lost interest in this wiki in the face of the enormous number of pages that have been turned into meaningless lists under inappropriate headings with any real content pushed off the immediately visible part of the page, and where the personality of past contributors has mostly been erased.

On 22 Feb 2015 I said that this wiki is now well on the way to becoming one person's personal playground.

Some other people agreed with me (perhaps not as many as I should have liked, but more than PYK seems to think there are). There are comments on this scattered throughout the wiki, and a long thread on comp.lang.tcl (which I did not start and which has wandered into other types of problem with the wiki).


RKzn 2015-08-31 - Thanks for your help , I was lost on why the link didn't work, so I decided to look at it later, and hoped for some help. I'm still not sure... I notice you added a colon, does the link markup need some nearby text to work?

EMJ It was a tagged list item originally (see Formatting Rules), but stripping out the colon and the rest made it into an indented line, in which everything is displayed as written. Putting (just) the colon back made it back itno a tagged list item with only the heading part.
