What I meant was, can someone explain the exact difference between
$Author and $AuthId in PmWiki?  I never really understood what $Author
was.  It's probably easy to setup zap to use $Author if available, or
$AuthId when AuthUser is enabled, or something of the like.  Whatever
is best.  But to be honest, I don't really understand the difference
between $Author and $AuthId, and how they work, are generated, etc. So
before I do something I like to have at least a vague idea what I'm
doing.

I'm fully committed to making ZAP work without AuthUser but just need
a bit of help from those not using AuthUser to help me know what you
want and if it works.  I think it's already *pretty much* authuser
free.

Cheers,
