-Download the [WMD source](http://wmd-editor.com/downloads/wmd-1.0.1.zip). In that zip file you'll
-find a few example html files, a readme and `wmd` directory. Move the `wmd` directory into the
-ikiwiki `underlays` directory. You should now have an `underlays/wmd/wmd.js` file as well as
-some other javascript files and an images directory in the same place.
+> So, I wonder if I should add a copy of the WMD source to ikiwiki, or rely
+> on the user or distribution providing it. It does not seem to be packaged
+> for Debian yet. Hmm, I also can't find any copyright or license info in
+> the zip file. --[[Joey]]
Note that the WMD plugin does **not** handle directives. For this reason the normal `preview` button
remains. Some CSS to clean up the display of the live WMD preview would be good.
-Install the following patch and plugin file. Then enable the 'wmd' plugin.
