* Make the basewiki be full of symlinks to pages that should be the same
in the doc wiki. This will allow direct edits to alter the base wiki
without manual munging.

This is an expression that matches -a set of pages. - -The simplest PageSpec is a simple list of pages. For example, this matches -any of the three listed pages: - - foo or bar or baz - -More often you will want to match any pages that have a particular thing in -their name. You can do this using a glob pattern. "`*`" stands for any part -of a page name, and "`?`" for any single letter of a page name. So this -matches all pages about music, and any [[SubPage]]s of the SandBox, but does -not match the SandBox itself: - - *music* or SandBox/* - -You can also prefix an item with "`!`" to skip pages that match it. So to -match all pages except for Discussion pages and the SandBox: - - * and !SandBox and !*/Discussion - -Some more elaborate limits can be added to what matches using any of these -functions: - -* "`link(page)`" - match only pages that link to a given page -* "`backlink(page)`" - match only pages that a given page links to -* "`creation_month(month)`" - match only pages created on the given month -* "`creation_day(mday)`" - or day of the month -* "`creation_year(year)`" - or year -* "`created_after(page)`" - match only pages created after the given page - was created -* "`created_before(page)`" - match only pages created before the given page - was created - -For example, to match all pages in a blog that link to the page about music -and were written in 2005: - - blog/* and link(music) and creation_year(2005) - -More complex expressions can also be created, by using parentheses for -grouping. For example, to match pages in a blog that are tagged with either -of two tags, use: - - blog/* and (link(tag/foo) or link(tag/bar)) - -Note that page names in PageSpecs are matched against the absolute -filenames of the pages in the wiki, so a pagespec "foo" used on page -"a/b" will not match a page named "a/foo" or "a/b/foo". To match -relative to the directory of the page containing the pagespec, you can -use "./". For example, "./foo" on page "a/b" matches page "a/foo". - -## Old syntax - -The old PageSpec syntax was called a "GlobList", and worked differently in -two ways: - -1. "and" and "or" were not used; any page matching any item from the list - matched. -2. If an item was prefixed with "`!`", then no page matching that item - matched, even if it matched an earlier list item. - -For example, here is the old way to match all pages except for the SandBox -and Discussion pages: - - * !SandBox !*/Discussion - -Using this old syntax is still supported. However, the old syntax is -deprecated and will be removed at some point, and using the new syntax is -recommended. +../doc/pagespec.mdwn
