|Some optional features requires extra packages and configuration
|
|GUI editor
|    In order to use GUI editor, you need to install the package
|    fckeditor, and make sure you have two lines likes thoses ones
|    in apache configuration file:
|        Alias __STATICPATH__/applets/FCKeditor/ "/usr/share/fckeditor/"
|        Alias __STATICPATH__/ "/usr/share/moin/htdocs/"
|
|    In order to disable GUI editor, you might want to add those two
|   lines in the wiki configuratoin (typically /etc/moin/mywiki.py)
|        editor_force = True
|        editor_default = 'text'
|
|DocBook rendering.
|    In order to render wiki pages as DocBook (i.e. xml), you will need 
|    to install the package python-xml. (When missing, moinmoin will 
|    display the error "No module named ext.reader")
