i'm not so fond of using my web browser as an editor, so i looked for tools to download wiki pages and edit them with my preferred editor, vim.

i grabbed WWW::Mediawiki::Client, and built a debian package out of it.

you can apt-get it by putting in your /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://sempai.fglan/~vagrant/debian unstable/

and then running:

apt-get update
apt-get install libwww-mediawiki-client-perl

from the package description:

WWW::Mediawiki::Client provides a very simple cvs-like interface for
Mediawiki driven WikiWiki websites, such as
http://www.wikitravel.org%7CWikitravel or
http://www.wikipedia.org%7CWikipedia.
.
the mvs command (formerly known as wix), mimics the two most basic
cvs commands: update and commit with similarly named methods.  Each
of these has a shorter alias, as in cvs.
