[Pmwiki-users] How best to develop a wiki farm

[Greg Morgan]

On a *nix box couldn't you do a symbolic link in pmwiki/field.a which points
to the main copy of pmwiki.php?  Then in local/config.php have code which
includes a global version config.php for all config.php-type code that is
common to all the wikis on the box. Then config.php would then include a
sub-wiki specific config.
