don't think so, perhaps I've not communicated clearly ....

the PHP scripts are to pull the data back out in various formats .... pdf,
latex, windows (chm) .....
the perl script is to process those pesky pov-centric tags (sectiondesc,
indexentry, linkto) by wrapping them in comments so they are not end user
viewable but are there none the less for PHP script to find them later.
There are also some wiki-isms that I've had to account for. This process is
pretty automated. I'm NOT doing any hand edits with the exception of the TeX
formulas used in the reference. I decided to do that by had as there were
only about a dozen or so used through out the entire doc set .... see on
the wiki User:Jholsenback

yes I've used this feature to export data from other wiki's into mine
(sandbox) ... it works rather nicely.

I have sysop so I can do that myself.

no offence ... I'm pretty far up on the curve now. I have a clear vision of
where I'm going with this.
