[ba-ohs-talk] TouchGraph WikiBrowser V1.01
The highly usable V1.01 release is finally out! There are lots of
improvements over V1.00. A new type of node has been added to represent
pages external to the wiki. Thus, if an external URL has been mentioned
repeatedly on several wiki pages, one will see multiple incoming edges for
the corresponding node. A Show BackLinks checkbox allows back links to be
shown or hidden. A Stop button has been added for stopping the graph
motion. ...and more ... All these features really give one the ability to
explore the structure of the Wiki. (01)
The down side of the LinkDatabase being read from a fixed text file
remains, though there are plans to resolve this issue by dynically
acquiring the link structure through calls to an XML based API. Some
progress along these lines can be seen at
