CvWiki – a wiki software, one of the early clones of Wiki Base, developed in 1997 by Peter Merel, which was the first wiki application to have functioning transclusion, backlinks, and “WayBackMode.”
CvWiki is the first GNU-licensed wiki based on WikiBase, the engine of the original WikiWikiWeb wiki by Ward Cunningham.
Features:
– uses flat files for text,
– supports direct transclusion of external web pages
– stores backlinks with their pages rather than searching for them (so backlinks pop up immediately)
– fully integrated with CVS so you’ve got
– unlimited undo,
– no edit collisions, and, best of all
– WayBackMode.
