This plugin allows inserting arbitrary metadata into the source of a page.
This plugin is not enabled by default. If it is enabled, the title of this
page will say it is. [[meta title="meta plugin (enabled)"]]
Enter the metadata as follows:

	\\[[meta field="value"]]
	\\[[meta field="value" param="value" param="value"]]

The first form sets a given field to a given value, while the second form
also specifies some additional sub-parameters.

You can use any field names you like, but here are some predefined ones:

* link

  Specifies a link to another page. This is used to generate a html
  <link> tag, and also as a way to make the wiki treat one page as
  linking to another without displaying a user-visible link. The latter 
  can be useful when using links to categorise pages. A html link tag
  would look like this:

	\\[[meta link="foo.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"]]

  A non-user-visible [[WikiLink]] would instead look like this:

	\\[[meta link=otherpage]]

* title

  Overrides the title of the page, which is generally the same as the
  page name.

* license

  Specifies a copyright license for the page, for example, "GPL".

* author

  Specifies the author of a page.

If the field is not treated specially (as the link and title fields are),
the metadata will be written to the generated html page as a <meta>
header.
