E.g. I have a namespace 'computer' and on that namespace is the following start.txt:- * [[systems:]] - Notes about set-up, configuration, quirks, workarounds etc. of the various syste> * [[hardware:]] - Documentation, links, notes about printers, scanner, router, etc. and specifica> * [[software:]] - This includes some generic Linux information, workarounds, etc. Notes and ideas> * [[miscellaneous:]] - Things that don't fit anywhere else, including notes about passwords * [[nokia:]] - Bits and pieces about my Nokia E71 smartphone. * [[thiswiki]] - Notes on this Info Wiki None of the links with a colon after them works.
