Thanks, posting an updated version would be helpful. I think both Perl 
and PHP versions would be useful. Sometimes it can be useful to 
manipulate wiki pages outside PmWiki.

I can run the Perl version outside of the user-space, which helps to 
stop malicious use of the script. I would like a PHP version that 
integrated with the wiki ACL. However, it might take me several cycles 
of the universe to code it in PHP:)

For my particular application (using a wiki page as a general dumping 
ground for notes from a mobile phone), that wouldn't be a problem.
