I can''t
do a diff from where I''m at, but basically you just need to make two
simple
edits to the app/controllers/file_controller.rb file.  First, in the method
"import", comment out the "return if file_uploads_disabled?"
line.

Second,
go down to the next method "check_allow_uploads" and change the first
line
from "unless RAILS_ENV == ''test''" to "unless
RAILS_ENV == ''production''".

Now, go to yourWiki/import and you''ll get an interface which will let
you
upload a zip full of textile.  It will import each page in the zip into your
wiki.

I haven''t seen any glaring problems yet, but stay tuned for my next
email which may be related to this. (but may not).

I followed these instructions, and with a little further tweaking to  
change the max_upload_size was able to get import working. I was  
looking for something that would maintain the revisions and  
authorship, however, so I''ve decided to suck up my perfectionism and  
try to let the wiki live on it''s own for the time being. Thanks for  
the help and suggestions,
