interesting...


MediaWiki is cool as well, and works well enough, though I ended up 
ultimately disabling the ability of people to create new user-accounts 
mostly as a spam-control measure (bots kept coming along and flooding 
the wiki with spam).


I had once considered the idea using a variant of MediaWiki syntax as 
part of a stand-alone documentation system (sort of like a mix of 
MediaWiki, Windows Help, and Javadoc), but never really got around to it.

the main idea though would be to do it as a single self-contained tool, 
in contrast to something like MediaWiki which has a list of dependencies 
needed to make it work (like MySQL and PHP and similar, and assumes 
using a web-server + browser, ...).

but, as noted, I never got to it, and don't currently have any concrete 
plans for doing so.

most of my documentation thus far is either as plain text files, or 
sometimes as HTML documents.

yep, could improve performance some I guess.
