[[!template id=gitbranch branch=wtk/raw_inline author="[[wtk]]"]]

summary
=======

Extend inlining to handle raw files (files with unrecognized extensions).

Also raise an error in `IkiWiki::pagetype($file)` if `$file` is blank, which avoids trying to do much with missing files, etc.

I'm using the new code in my [blog][].

usage
=====

    \[[!inline pagenames="somefile.txt" template="raw" feeds="no"]]


> But inline already supports raw files in two ways:
> 
> * setting raw=yes will cause a page to be inlined raw without
>   using any template, as if it were part of the page at the location
>   of the inline
> * otherwise, the file becomes an enclosure in the rss feed, for use with
>    podcasting.

> So I don't see the point of your patch. Although since your text
> editor seems to like to make lots of whitespace changes, it's possible
> I missed something in the large quantity of noise introduced by it.
