I easily managed to make it work on its own as a server (windows 2000
+ apache 2.2.4 + activestate perl + wikicalccgi.pl), but I fear it
would be far more difficult to make it work on wiki's array markup.

IMHO, there's here some food for an interesting recipe: rendering a
WikiCalc spreadsheet as an PmWiki array, and according to
authentication status, providing a link to edit/recompute the
spreadsheet with WikiCalc.

Anyone?
