+preprocessor time. Text output by a preprocessor directive will be
+linkified and passed through markdown (or whatever engine is used to htmlize
+the page) along with the rest of the page.
+
+### htmlize
+
+ hook(type => "htmlize", id => "ext", call => \&htmlize);
+
+Runs on the raw source of a page and turns it into html. The id parameter
+specifies the filename extension that a file must have to be htmlized using
+this plugin. This is how you can add support for new and exciting markup
+languages to ikiwiki.
+
+The function is passed named parameters: "page" and "content" and should
+return the htmlized content.
+
+### pagetemplate
+
+ hook(type => "pagetemplate", id => "foo", call => \&pagetemplate);
+
+[[Templates]] are filled out for many different things in ikiwiki, like
+generating a page, or part of a blog page, or an rss feed, or a cgi. This
+hook allows modifying those templates. The function is passed named
+parameters. The "page" and "destpage" parameters are the same as for a
+preprocess hook. The "template" parameter is a [[cpan HTML::Template]]
+object that is the template that will be used to generate the page. The
+function can manipulate that template object.
+
+The most common thing to do is probably to call $template->param() to add
+a new custom parameter to the template.
+
+### sanitize
+
+ hook(type => "sanitize", id => "foo", call => \&sanitize);
+
+Use this to implement html sanitization or anything else that needs to
+modify the body of a page after it has been fully converted to html.
+
+The function is passed named parameters: "page" and "content", and
+should return the sanitized content.
+
+### format
+
+ hook(type => "format", id => "foo", call => \&format);
+
+The difference between format and sanitize is that sanitize only acts on
+the page body, while format can modify the entire html page including the
+header and footer inserted by ikiwiki, the html document type, etc.
+
+The function is passed named parameters: "page" and "content", and
+should return the formatted content.
+
+### delete
+
+ hook(type => "delete", id => "foo", call => \&delete);
+
+Each time a page or pages is removed from the wiki, the referenced function
+is called, and passed the names of the source files that were removed.
+
+### change
+
+ hook(type => "change", id => "foo", call => \&render);
+
+Each time ikiwiki renders a change or addition (but not deletion) to the
+wiki, the referenced function is called, and passed the names of the
+source files that were rendered.
+
+### cgi
+
+ hook(type => "cgi", id => "foo", call => \&cgi);
+
+Use this to hook into ikiwiki's cgi script. Each registered cgi hook is
+called in turn, and passed a CGI object. The hook should examine the
+parameters, and if it will handle this CGI request, output a page and
+terminate the program.
+
+### auth
+
+ hook(type => "auth", id => "foo", call => \&auth);
+
+This hook can be used to implement a different authentication method than
+the standard web form. When a user needs to be authenticated, each registered
+auth hook is called in turn, and passed a CGI object and a session object.
+
+If the hook is able to authenticate the user, it should set the session
+object's "name" parameter to the authenticated user's name. Note that
+if the name is set to the name of a user who is not registered,
+a basic registration of the user will be automatically performed.
+
+### formbuilder
+
+ hook(type => "formbuilder_setup", id => "foo", call => \&formbuilder_setup);
+ hook(type => "formbuilder", id => "foo", call => \&formbuilder);
+
+These hooks allow tapping into the parts of ikiwiki that use [[cpan
+CGI::FormBuilder]] to generate web forms. These hooks are passed named
+parameters: `cgi`, `session`, and `form`. These are, respectively, the
+`CGI` object, the user's `CGI::Session`, and a `CGI::FormBuilder`.
+
+Each time a form is set up, the formbuilder_setup hook is called.
+Typically the formbuilder_setup hook will check the form's title, and if
+it's a form that it needs to modify, will call various methods to
+add/remove/change fields, tweak the validation code for the fields, etc. It
+will not validate or display the form.
+
+Form validation and display can be overridden by the formbuilder hook.
+By default, ikiwiki will do a basic validation and display of the form,
+but if this hook is registered, it will stop that and let the hook take
+over. This hook is passed an additional named parameter: `buttons` is an
+array of the submit buttons for the form.
+
+### savestate
+
+ hook(type => "savestate", id => "foo", call => \&savestate);
+
+This hook is called wheneven ikiwiki normally saves its state, just before
+the state is saved. The function can save other state, modify values before
+they're saved, etc.
