Glad to learn that -- I'm sure Pm is grateful.

There are at least 2 ways to do it.

To have separate pages included in the current page you can use:

   (:include OtherPage:)

See https://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/IncludeOtherPages

To automate it, I suggest looking up pagelists, especially the "trail" 
option. This way you create a bulleted list of links to the subpages, 
and a pagelist that includes them in the correct order.


Another way is to install the recipe SectionEdit:

   https://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/SectionEdit

This way all your text can be in one page, and you open for editing 
individual sections separated by !!Headings.
