Linguas
=======
`pagename.$LANG`, where `$LANG` is a ISO639-1 (two-letter) language code.
To enable linguas, add the following line in the source code of the page:
- [[linguas ]]
+ \[[linguas ]]
Note that linguas is only required in one of the pages (the original,
for instance); the rest of translations will be automatically
updated. Additionally, it is also possible to specify the title of
the translation:
- [[linguas title="Translated title"]]
+ \[[linguas title="Translated title"]]

so. (Actually, defining hash-like arguments from the command like works
fine, but it fails from ikiwiki.setup.)

* Wiki links to other translated pages require the full page name
including the `.$LANG`. It should be possible to link automatically
to pages with the same `.$LANG`, but that would probably require some
changes in IkiWiki. (I'm not sure though, I still haven't looked at
it... any hints?)
