  Description     : A Quickie Wiki that's not too Tricky

There are dozens of wiki implementations in the world, and many of those
are written in Perl. As is common with many Perl hacks, they are rarely
modular, and almost never released on CPAN. One major exception is
CGI::Wiki. This is a wiki framework that is extensible and is actively
maintained.

Another exception is this module, CGI::Kwiki. CGI::Kwiki focuses on
simplicity and extensibility. You can create a new kwiki website with a
single command. The module has no prerequisite modules, except the ones
that ship with Perl. It doesn't require a database backend, although it
could be made to use one. The default kwiki behaviour is fairly full
featured, and includes support for html tables. Any behaviour of the
kwiki can be customized, without much trouble.
