Hi,

I've now hacked the code to include wiki.lyx.org/ in the listing.  My gmail
account actually automatically renders it as a link, so not sure if I
actually gained anything by not prefixing it also with "https://". Oh
well...

Ah, but the key is manually...   We used to have problems with spambots on
the wiki, but by adding a very simple password - which was even shown by
the dialog, we got rid of a lot of the automated spambots.

Anyway, we'll give this a try and see how it works out.

Cheers,

PS. When I tested to modify a file, it resulted in this difference listing:
