relative links in wiki

[dju`]

i'd appreciate creating relative links in wiki pages, by doing:

[../some_dir/ back to home]
[dox/ doxygen documentation]

however, it seems only absolute links beginning by http: are supported.

Actually, wouldn't it be more consistent to do something like:

  link:/path/to/something
  or
  [link:/path/to/something name]

Also, it would be nice if the first form would auto-inline images as is done with http:// links now.

seems to be okay

Related to #731.

(I think daniel meant related to #739)

Priority raised :) I'll add that to the InterTrac branch.

It's now implemented in the InterTrac branch, in r1921.

For the syntax, I kept the original proposal, not the link: syntax proposed by Tom.

Also, one additional restriction I added was that the relative link must begin with either a / or a .

This is in case we support alphanumerical changeset names (IIRC, Darcs needs that). Although the regexp for the changeset would come first, I think it is better to have a non-ambiguous syntax.

Therefore, [./here] works, but not [here].

[cboos]

This is part of the InterTrac branch and as such will be post-poned to 1.0.

[cmlenz]

This doesn't seem to be related to InterTrac as far as I can tell. Would it be possible to port this feature to trunk?

[cboos]

Yes, no problem (no problems expected, at least :) )

[cboos]

Fixed in [2159]

Syntax supported:

  [../some_dir/ back to home]
  [./sibling/ look besides]
  [/dox/ doxygen documentation]
  [//example.com/there there, using the same protocol as here]

Syntax not supported:

  link:/path/to/something
  [link:/path/to/something name]
  [dox/ doxygen documentation]
