I updated newgroupbox.php to integrate Autogrouppages better.
See http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/NewGroupBox
There is no more variable $EnableAutoGroupPages.
Instead there is the markup option autogroup=true, which you add to
the (:newgroupbox:) markup. so you write:
(:newgroupbox autogroup=true save=true:)
and provide the relevant template pages and the $AutoGroupPagesFmt
array as before.

Now you can use the newgroupbox without the automatic page creation,
autogrouppages only gets used when the markup option is specified. I
think this will work better.
