My plugin uses the cb_prepare() callback.  When it's called it needs
to construct the full path to the file about to be rendered.  Thus, if
I'm using the wgbwiki.py plugin (which I am), I need to get rid of the
TRIGGER part of the PATH_INFO as it's not 'real' as it were.  I was
just wondering if there is a variable floating around somewhere that
just has the "/holidays/france2005/part1" in it.

However it's hardly difficult to remove the "/wiki" from the front so
it's a perfectly acceptable solution.

There's another issue that has arisen related to this though, see my
new message.
