 It seems I will have to install the ikiwiki from the tar.gz file. I have downloaded it, but do I need to install CPAN or CPAN++ first? That doesn't sound right. I am totally confused already. Does anyone have some install documents pitched to someone as ignorant as I am? -- [[WillDioneda]]

+How do I set up cgi editing?  In setup I have:
+
+ * cgiurl => 'http://wiki.had.co.nz/edit.cgi'
+ * cgi_wrapper => 'edit.cgi'
+
+But I don't get an edit link on my pages?  What am I doing wrong?
