Trac Wiki converted to Pelican Markdown
=======================================

This is a dummy landing page for a Trac Wiki site converted to
Markdown and fed through Pelican to create a static web site.

See [the conversion scripts that produced
this](https://git.hactrn.net/sra/trac-wiki-to-markdown) for details on
the conversion process.  Be warned that it's a lot of nasty regular
expressions, because nothing other than Trac really understand's
Track's Wiki format.

Trac's landing page is always called [WikiStart](wikistart.html).

Pelican's [automatically-generated index](pelican-index.html) is the
default Pelican landing page, but we had to move it aside to make room
for this one.

For the initial conversion we just use Pelican's default theme.
There's a *lot* of room to adjust the appearance, and a lot of
[example themes already available for Pelican](http://pelicanthemes.com/).

Similarly, we don't do anything with Pelican's "category" mechanism
because it has no direct analogue in TracWiki.  See [the Pelican
documentation](https://docs.getpelican.com/en/stable/) for details on
how to use the category mechanism, or how to disable it completely.

Feel free to clean all of this up, this page is just a placeholder to
make it easy to navigate the converted wiki until a human takes over.
