That's nice! And with

http://astraw.com/scipy/moin.fcg/HelpOnParsers/ReStructuredText?action=raw

one gets the raw text of a page.
See
  http://astraw.com/scipy/moin.fcg/HelpOnActions
for more actions.

Concerning restructured text, which I like a lot,
one has to embed the page with
{{{
#!rst

}}}

At least on http://astraw.com/scipy/moin.fcg/ArndBaecker
it did not work with #!rst at the beginning only.

Best,
