[[I|tschwinge]] started writing a plugin to render
[GNU Texinfo](http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/)
inside the ikiwiki environment.
wiki pages in the Texinfo format (even though that is possible, of course),
but rather to ease collaboration on existing Texinfo documents.
-The plugin is available at <http://www.schwinge.homeip.net/~thomas/tmp/texinfo.pm>.
+The plugin is available at
+<http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/hurd/web.git/plain/.library/IkiWiki/Plugin/texinfo.pm>.
It's very basic at the moment, but will be improved over time.
+It also has not really been audited for any security issues.

# Issues
+## How can I use verbatiminclude?
+
+I only can post a file ...

## N-to-M Mapping of Input and Output Files
Conventional ikiwiki [[*htmlize*ing|plugins/write#index6h3]] plugins
(?) One possibility (which is what I'm doing at the moment) is to simply cut away
everythin until `<body>` is seen and after `</body>` has been seen. --[[tschwinge]]

+# Bugs
+
+## Non-functional Texinfo Commands
+
+Those commands are know to not work currently:
+
+* `@printindex`
+* `@shortcontents`
+* `@contents`
+
+This is due to `makeinfo` not providing this functionality if rendering to stdout.
