Keywords: SL description
GoWiki is the 'engine' underlying Sensei's Library which presents the pages and diagrams based on a pure text version stored in a database.
GoWiki is a collection of
GoWiki is based on The PHP source for the diagram image creating routine (i.e. conversion of the SL text format for diagrams into PNG files) is available separately and published under the GNU General Public License. Download sltxt2png (and rename to sltxt2png.php) The file has demo code included. Just copy it to your webserver, and call it. You should see a diagram with a well-known position. You need to have GD support enabled in PHP. You can check this by calling phpinfo() and looking for a section titled "gd". GD version 2 produces nicer images than GD version 1 (IMHO). Are GoWiki's sources available ? --AGiss Arno: if you are just looking for a wiki engine, then I suggest that you have a look at PhpWiki above. GoWiki is based on version 1.2. PhpWiki has been developed further, has an active development team, version 1.3 has many more features, is very easy to install, ... In short: this is the sane (and best) choice.
A list of other wiki engines can be found at Ward's wiki at The only thing that GoWiki adds are the diagrams. However, this and other minor enhancements are not coded in a clean style, as the source was never meant to be published. The source could (if at all) only be published on alt.tasteless.jokes. If you absolutely have to have to sources you can email me. No documentation, no support, nasty code, hacks, bugs, and workarounds. Note: The current GoWiki code bears next to no resemblance to PhpWiki. The code was forged in late 2000 and both branches developed very differently.
