Wikitext 1.1 released

Yesterday I pushed out a minor feature release of my wikitext module, version 1.1. The principal enhancement in this release is the addition of a special tokenizer for the purposes of performing full-text search indexing of wikitext markup. More detailed release notes are also available.

Wikitext is a fast wikitext-to-HTML translator with a syntax very close to that used by MediaWiki. It is a Ruby extension written with speed and robustness in mind using a Ragel-generated scanner and a hand-coded parser, all in C. It has an enormous spec suite.

You can browse the source code repo, or download the gem from the RubyForge downloads page. For an overview check out the RDoc here. If you have RubyGems then you can install it with sudo gem install wikitext.
