Tristan,
I don't mind the FTP idea, but it would present two problems.
First, the user would have to download the .zip, or at least the .txt file if I 
have a folder with the .zip and .txt file in order to view it.
This would more than likely mean that I would have to have a folder with the 
name of the project, which can get long.
Also, I'd have to set up separate accounts for each person, as well as create 
an annonymous ftp.
The wiki gives the user the abbility to download the files, and can easily be 
viewed and changed.
HTH,
Thanks,
Tyler Littlefield.

  Hi Tyler,
  Maybe an ftp, and anyone can view it, but to edit it they have to fill out a 
form on the site of the ftp, to get an account to edit.

    Hello all,
    I've been thinking on how I can contribute.
    We've got Inthane's grabbag, and the bp site.
    I was thinking about setting up a code vault.
    I know we have places to get code, but those are... a bit messy.
    I'd like to set this up on some sort of wiki base maybe, or something else.
    Anyway, I've not seen much in terms of moo, autoit, lpc, and other code.
    I'd love code samples, e-mailed privately of course that I can put up.
    I will also let people know when the wiki is up, so that they can create 
users and etc.
    I was thinking wiki because it can be edited by most members, as well as 
being accessible to the public.
    Anyway, in the code samples, please include:
    a file that tells about the program, and any contact info you wish to have 
posted with the code.
    I'll probably do a direct link to .zip, and then just have the 
documentation listed on the wiki now that I think about it.

    Thanks,
    Tyler Littlefield.
