[Moin-user] Cross references

[Robert Groenewegen]

Hi Nick,

Can you please publish your "draft" macro? I would like to write a macro 
for a private wiki that reads from a database but do not really know where 
to start. Maybe your macro can put me on the right track ...

Of course you can send it to me directly too 
(mailto://robert.groenewegen@zonnet.nl). Thanks, in advance.

Bye, Robert
