This page talks about the wiki as implemented and hosted by [JCW] until spring 2007. For more information on the software used to run the wiki at this moment, check [Wub], http://code.google.com/p/wub/ and http://code.google.com/p/wikitcl/ . [http://www.equi4.com/images/wikit.gif] The name "Wikit" can be interpreted in two ways: 1. An implementation of [Wiki] in [Tcl] 2. An implementation of [Wiki] using [Metakit]. Both are accurate. Wikit can be used in a number of ways * as a CGI process (see [Wikit under CGI]), in which case it becomes a part of your web server - making collaborative editing possible * it can be used standalone, running locally with a Tcl/Tk graphical front end (see [Wikit in local mode]) - providing includes a high-performance search facility and making it very easy to browse and edit information off-line. * via its own embedded web server (see [How to grow your own Wiki]) - allowing you to run a web based wiki even on platforms without a web server - such as a Windows desktop! * embedded in your application - providing a hyperlinked and searchable help system (see [adding the wikit to your script]). Wikit itself is fully self contained in a single platform-independent file, called a [Starkit] It requires a platform-dependent runtime called [Tclkit]. The contents of the Wiki are contained in a single file [Metakit] database. One useful application is to provide a local copy of [the Tcler's Wiki] - see [wiki database for offline use] ''You can't see the full size of the file until the download is done. In case you're wondering, wikit.gz had 5,640 Kb on July 14, 2003. 6,500 Kb in December, 2003. 7,500 Kb in February, 2004. 8,500 in May, 2004. And growing. It hit 9638 KB in February 13, 2005. On November 10, 2005 the size is 10,928 Kb. On September 25 2006, the size is 14,500 Kb. On January 17, 2007, the size is 15,939,580 bytes! There are over 17,880 pages, and over 44 megabytes of page text.''
