Is this true? On my Mac, if I drag a wikilib.d/ folder from the
untarred pmwiki folder into my pmwiki web folder, I sort of
think it will replace it, but I could well be wrong. Sorry, I'm
pretty low tech and haven't explicitly tested this.

My vote would be to use categories, but I'm happy to go along with
whatever decision is made.

Thanks for the response
