I have broken each mod up so that they can be used independantly as well and so that each can be considered for 1.1 with its own merits.
However given the lack of activity there is here in UseMod, I have decided to leave you all with the latest changes and then continue to update UseModD with direct edits to the master perl file. The patches listed below are the last updates I will send in. If you want more updates, improvements and fixes then you will need to take the whole set of changes available over at the UseModD site here http://www.timeistheanswer.com/cgi-bin/usemodd.pl DeadLink [UseModD @ Internet Archive]

These mods will have a Unified Unix Diff Context description. This will help when using Unix Patch as you (and certainly I) will want to add all these patches. I am only doing each patch in turn so that any one may be of use to others.
For Windows get them from here: [UNXUtils]
They have been made like this:

This is an interesting set of changes--I wish you luck in implementing them. Have you considered making a UseModWiki variant based on your mods (when you have implemented all of them)? You might want to look at OddMuse for more mod ideas. I encourage people to distribute variant versions, so please feel free to do so. --CliffordAdams
Mark, this isnt strictly your job, but I cant find it elsewhere either. So I want to use, especially the side menu. But I don't know how to splice your mod code into my existing setup. Does it go in the cgi-bin as a separate script? Or does it fit in the wiki.pl script? Or does it go in config?
I have handled other perl customisation. So I know to copy an existing script before I experiment. And I have put bits in existing scripts, or deleted others. But I do feel the need for instruction on what to do with your chunks of code.
Ive had a look at cwick and I'm lusting for coloured boxes ...
Q: Hi Mark, do you have an example site running with your mods? --TilmannHolst
Hi Mark, I think that in the functon GetHeader you had return $result; two line too early - preventing non-full height sidebars from working. Also, GetFooterText adds an additional hr element at the end of the document (so it is always at the bottom even if full-height sidebars are on. Should add that I'm very pleased by the functionality you;ve brought together though. --GeorgeHarker?
That was old code and the code here now should be OK. However the other changes you have made will only make it into the full UseModD variant over at [UseModD]. Cheers. --MarkButler
There is a problem patching the accumulated bug fixes. This is the diff between a 'fixed' version, and the failed patch. Any reason to remove this feature ('special page' count)?
