How do I find out what options are available for interpreted strings in XOWiki (e.g. I wanted to know all the switches available for wiki page includes, b/c I do not want the title and portlet html to show up and can not remember how I did it last time)? Is there an XOWiki "API Doc"?

Carl,
I have told Gustaf for many months that I would do this, but alas life gets in the way.

I have many notes and private emails from him and was planning on putting this all together, like months ago.

I would be happy to send you what I have, but I would have to parse emails to make it coherent, I put it on my hot list.

This is (and was) documented in http://alice.wu-wien.ac.at:8000/xowiki-doc/#includelets

i have added the list if the predefined includelets to the documentation and added a few more details.

Thanks everyone.

I had seen that page but couldn't find it again.
This is the first page that comes up in google related to XOWiki documentation: https://openacs.org/doc/xowiki/
which points to the fourth google result:
http://media.wu-wien.ac.at/download/xowiki-doc/

Any chance you could update that page Gustaf?

I am starting to wonder how we can start documenting options in the interface itself for local users. Maybe just have an includlet that is a wiki page that is loaded on install and shows up on the edit page? Any plans for something like this? I would like to start showing a few options to users of our XoWiki install where they need it (on edit) and am wondering how we can best share this kind of addition.
