What WIKI do you recommend
MoinMoin [wikipedia link] uses flat files, so does WikidPad as a personal wiki.
- Is there an app to keep track of all the details when writing a story?
-
Good open source Linux based wiki for work organization?
For an individual, I used to use WikidPad and quite like it.
-

Ask HN: Programming Without a Build System?
Details I didn't include but should have (I wasn't sure I'd have any replies at all... I should have had more faith, sorry)
It's a bit of a ramble, sorry about that.
MSTOICAL[0] is a fork of an old C based Forth variant, it took some help from the HN community[1] to get it to compile in a modern 64 bit environment, for which I am very thankful. However, it uses AutoConf to configure, build, install, etc... and I can't for the life of me figure out how to remove all of that logic. (C isn't my primary language, I'm willing to learn that, but adding AutoConf on top of it was too much)
In order to work on that, I was willing to switch to Linux (Ubuntu)... got everything up and running for the most part, but then I couldn't access WikidPad[2], my local Wiki with my appointments, etc. I missed a doctors appointment because of that, so went back to Windows.
The issue is around wxWindows changing the names of variables in some calls. On Windows, you just download an EXE installer and you're good to go. I couldn't figure it out because the program seems to be unwilling to support newer Python versions. (I could be wrong)
I don't understand why they felt the need to make breaking changes to wxWindows, and the python is a bit too dense for me.
So finally... I'm back in Windows 10, and decided to try to craft together a twitter clone with a bunch of weird ideas that I tossed out at 3:30 am in a twitter thread, and put into a more coherent manifesto.[3]

wikia for writers to work offline
Wikidpad is quite functional. It's not the prettiest but it does its job. I don't know if or how you can implement images. But it's free and maybe worth a try.

> It provides a meaningful performance improvement for at least one popular platform (realistically, on the order of 5%).
At first it will not provide a large boost, but it will set the foundations for larger gains in subsequent releases. They link a list of some proposed improvements already underway, with improvement estimates, at https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/115802
