[moin-user] Moin 2 raw text?

[Roger Haase]

 There are several name changes, "Raw" is now "Highlight" (or "</>" on tiny displays), "Edit" is now "Modify"...
Cut and paste still works.
There is not a button link to hide the banner.

Unfamiliar interface ... "different" or "inferior?". 
10 minutes of frobbing did not reveal the equivalent of Moin 1.9:

More Actions:
  Raw Text

I hope to learn what is typed in, to make what comes out.  I'll git the
github version, and frob some more.

One really important advantage (for me) of Moin 1.9 is that I can compose
raw text with other tools - building raw text for tables with C programs,
for example, then cut and paste.  Will Moin 2 permit that?

Slightly disturbing is that the banner area is a little taller.  As
screens get wider and wider (and simultaneously runty-er and runty-er),
tall banners are a step backwards.  OTOH, if the whole banner can be
collapsed with a not-yet-discovered button click, I can learn to love it.

Anyway, if there's a vote for converting Moin1.9 to Python 3, or
releasing Moin2 *AS THAT DEMO SEEMS TO BEHAVE NOW* as "Stable" and
going with that ...  I'm in the Moin1.9 migration camp.  FORK BACK!

Not sure what I can contribute to converting Moin1.9, besides testing
beta code and making revealing mistakes and documenting what I did to
make them (I have daily backups, I won't lose my work).  But then,
I can't make hello.c compile the same way twice running, so if the
retrograde renegade team needs a crash test dummy, I'm your dummy.

As far as difficult discussions with my boss, my wife lets me think
that's me ... until I make a mistake, as defined by her.  She won't
take kindly to rewriting her wiki content and learning a different
computer tool, so I would rather kick in some money to the Moin1.9
migration, instead of paying a divorce attorney and moving to a
fleabag hotel.
