Wikitext 1.1.1 released

Created , updated 1 minute read

I just uploaded a minor maintenance release of my wikitext module, version 1.1.1, whose sole change is a fix for the breakage caused by API changes in Rails 2.1.0_RC1.

Wikitext is a fast wikitext-to-HTML translator with a syntax very close to that used by MediaWiki. It is a Ruby extension written with speed and robustness in mind using a Ragel-generated scanner and a hand-coded parser, all in C. It has an enormous spec suite.

You can browse the source code repo, or download the gem from the RubyForge downloads page. For an overview check out the RDoc here. If you have RubyGems then you can install it with sudo gem install wikitext, although it may take some time for the new release to propagate out to all the gem mirrors.
