+

+**rst-wikilinks** patch series includes changes at the end to use ikiwiki's
+'htmllink' for the links (which is the only sane thing to do to work in all configurations).
+This means a :wiki:`Link` should render just exactly like [[Link]] whether
+the target exists or not.

+On top of **rst-wikilinks** is [rst-customize][rst-custom] which adds two
+power user features: Global (python) file to read in custom directives
+(unsafe), and a wikifile as "header" file for all parsed .rst files (safe,
+but disruptive since all .rst depend on it). Well, the customizations have
+to be picked and chosen from this, but at least the global python file can
+be very convenient.

- From: Ulrik Sverdrup
- Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2009 15:18:50 +0200
- Subject: [PATCH] rst: Resolve native reStructuredText links to ikiwiki pages
-
- Links in rST use syntax `Like This`_ or OneWordLink_, and are
- generally used for relative or absolue links, with an auxiliary
- definition:
-
- .. _`Like This`: http://ikiwiki.info
- .. _OneWordLink: relative
-
- We can hook into docutils to resolve unresolved links so that rST
- links without definition can be resolved to wiki pages. This enables
- WikiLink_ to link to [[WikiLink]] (if no .. _WikiLink is specified).
-
- Comparing to Ikiwiki's wikilinks
-
- [[blogging|blog]] specifies a link to the page blog, with the name
- blogging. In rST we should use blogging_
-
- .. _blogging: blog
-
- *However*, note that this patch does not hook into this. What we
- resolve in this patch is finding the appropriate "_blogging" if it is
- not found, not resolving the address 'blog'.
