Yup, you got me. In my defence my email tells me the last time I did anything serious related to swiki development was early 2001 which is long enough ago that I'm not sure I was actually there.

Just for the record in case I or anyone else needs to google for it in the future, the all-in-one (https://www.dropbox.com/s/ju4gkvxyc96xhp2/SwikiIn4.5.zip?dl=0) Chris mentioned includes the structure imposed by Apple's odd decisions, and a key subdirectory is 'swiki', which contains directories for various types of swiki. There are templates of html and chunks of code that are used to implement the specific swiki; so the UI changes that caught me out are implemented in them. I assume the relevant files for the public swiki are alive and well on the machine hosting it...

Chris - do you have any notes on the building of the system, code snippets etc? I note that the repository for the Swiki package is inaccessible these days. It really would be nice to get this updated to go on SqueakMap for insta-loading.
