This wiki is powered by PikeWiki. PikeWiki is written entirely in Pike, and uses a  Pike-powered wiki markup engine for formatting specially written plain text as HTML.

Source code for PikeWiki can be found in the {link:HG Repository|http://hg.welliver.org/pikewiki}.

{link:Radeox|http://radeox.org} is an open source Wiki rendering engine used by many popular Wikis, including {link:SnipSnap|http://snipsnap.org}. PikeWiki's markup format is almost identical to SnipSnap's, easing the transition for SnipSnap and xwiki users.
