Pier Wiki Editor Enhancement

Having a Wiki syntax in Pier makes it very efficient to author and edit content. The Pier Wiki syntax is backward compatible to the syntax of the Squeak Wiki, however it has evolved mostly unnoticed in the past few years. To change that and to make it easier for you to write content I published a Javascript powered edit toolbar:

Toolbar

The Pier-EditorEnh package can be loaded into any recent Pier installation from http://source.lukas-renggli.ch/pieraddons.html. It transparently adds some Javascript code to your site to provide the functionality of the toolbar. Make sure you also have the Prototype library loaded, as it uses some functionality from there. If you don’t want the toolbar anymore, just unload the package. This is real plug-and-play.

Btw, the toolbar icons are slightly modified versions of the icons found in the open-source Tango Icon Library.

Where is the Prototype library? Thanks

The prototype library is part of script.aculo.us. So the only thing you need to do is to load Scriptaculous from the Seaside repository and add SULibrary to your application.
