Microsoft Word Upload

Description

This patch expands the "Upload" page with another form which allows Microsoft Word documents to be uploaded. The document is parsed and a "preview" page appears with the contents of the documents converted to UseModWiki markup. Internally, the document is first converted to HTML by wvHtml (part of the wv package), and the resulting page is then converted to wiki text by HTML::WikiConverter?.

This particular patch is a bit trickier to install and use than the rest of my patches, mostly due to the external requirements.

  1. Install the wv package. It is available from http://wvware.sourceforge.net/; but most distributions have packages. For instance, debian users can issue an "apt-get wv", and that's it.
  2. Install the HTML::WikiConverter? perl module. Your perl distribution is bound to have the CPAN module which you can use for this task. If this is the first perl module that you are installing by hand, read up on the subject first. The "magic command" that you will need to issue (as root) is: "perl -MCPAN -e 'install "HTML::WikiConverter"'"
  3. Change the following line in the config file of your wiki from:
    $ENV{PATH} = "/usr/bin/"; # Path used to find "diff"
    to:
    $ENV{PATH} = "/usr/bin/:/bin/"; # Path used to find "diff" and "sed"
  4. Apply the patch.

If the script doesn't work, please check your installation of wv and HTML::WikiConverter?, as well as your config file first. The web server's error log is also likely to hold some useful info.
