WikiLink is actually two separate things; firstly, a java class for interfacing with a mediawiki server, and secondly, a Mathematica package providing a wrapper around this. This page documents the Mathematica package, whie the java class, and its addition functionality, will be documented elsewhere. (Todo:)

Download

Download WikiLink.zip (file description). Unzip this, probably in the same place you've unzipped the KnotTheory` package. This will create a subdirectory called WikiLink, containing (at least) these files:

Filename	Description
WikiLink.nb	The Mathematica notebook containing wrapper function definitions.
WikiLink.m	The Mathematica package automatically generated from WikiLink.nb.
wikilink.jar	The WikiLink java class and source code (MediawikiConnection.java).
jdom.jar commons-httpclient-3.0-rc2.jar commons-codec-1.3.jar commons-lang-2.1.jar commons-logging.jar	Libraries (all available under either GPL or the Apache license) required by wikilink.jar

Compatibility

WikiLink has been tested against mediawiki 1.4.5beta3 and 1.4.7
