Funny message at top of Swiki page

If you visit http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak instead of
http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak.1, some browsers will think that you're
visiting a directory and will stick a slash at the end of your URL, e.g.,
http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/  Now, no relative links work right,
e.g., references to squeak.23 become
http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/squeak.23.

We currently catch it as a special case, and warn the user.
