Rescuing Lost Nodes

1. Thank your gods that you make backups.

2. Fetch wiki.data from the most recent backup.

3. ActivePython 2.2.2 Build 224 (ActiveState Corp.) based on
   Python 2.2.2 (#37, Nov 26 2002, 10:24:37) [MSC 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
   Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
   >>> import metakit
   >>> db = metakit.storage('wiki.data')
   >>> nodes = db.getas("nodes[id:S,title:S,text:S")
   >>> res, found = nodes.locate({'id':'WikiTool'})
   >>> found
   1

4. Sigh with relief.

5. >>> t = nodes[res].text
   >>> t[:60]
   ".. contents:: \n\nWhat?\n-----\n\nI've hacked together the PyDS W"
   >>> file('phew.txt','wt').write(t)

6. Copy content from phew.txt back into PyDS as WikiTool/ToDo.

7. Cackle with laughter.

Edit non-existent subnode bug

Oops

Exception exceptions.KeyError: 

categoryid File Line Function 
Source 

D:\Python22\Lib\site-packages\PyDS\Tool.py 1068 
continue_request s = getattr(self,meth)(req) 

D:\Python22\Lib\site-packages\PyDS\WikiTool.py 257 
show_html _flet.begin(categoryid=node ['categoryid'], id=id) 

I linked to WikiTool/ToDo and tried to follow it.

Oh, bugger. I just trashed my to do list by copying the error before pasting the list somewhere else...

Duplicating the Amelie Effect

Oooooh.

Bride of Windows

Nifty, though the DHTML Imposter Exploding Tree List Menu is closer to what I want. If anyone has a tree view that'd make sense for the heirachial display of the new WikiTool (grab the most recent version), please let me know.
