<P dir=ltr>Hi,</P>
<P dir=ltr>Sorry, but controlling random, otherwise unrelated jails and
servers, via some rst comment in a svn repo isn't happening. Were not going to
start orchestrating the entire rack via comments! Get me the full list of
redirects you need and they can be put into the server config.<BR></P>

class=gmail_quote>Since our conversation on IRC ended up rather confused,
hopefully I can<BR>clarify what my idea is.<BR><BR>The goal is to redirect
wiki pages to corresponding manual pages with a<BR>system which allows any
documentor to quickly and easily add redirects<BR>as they are noticed.<BR>My
proposed solution is to:<BR><BR>1. Define redirects by placing a special
comment inside the manual<BR>page's source, containing the wiki page
path.<BR>For example, you might put something like this:<BR><BR>
.. _wiki-redirect:
/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Nodes/Shaders<BR><BR>In the rEST source
of<BR><A href="http://blender.org/manual/render/cycles/nodes/shaders.html"
target=_blank>http://blender.org/manual/render/cycles/nodes/shaders.html</A>.<BR><BR>This
would be easy to add when editing manual pages for other reasons,<BR>and
would not require any extra actions when moving pages around inside<BR>the
manual.<BR><BR>2. Compile these urls into a list via a script which searches
*.rst<BR>files for these comments, and uses the path of the *.rst file
containing<BR>the comment as the destination of the redirect. So the example
above<BR>would generate output
like:<BR><BR>/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Nodes/Shaders
-><BR>/manual/render/cycles/nodes/shaders<BR><BR>3. Use the resulting
list (formatted however it needs to be) to perform<BR>redirection from the
wiki, perhaps using the mediawiki redirection<BR>system Dan
mentioned?<BR><BR><BR>Hope that clarifies things :)<BR>Any
thoughts?<BR><BR>--<BR>-gandalf3<BR><BR>_______________________________________________<BR>Bf-docboard
