An answer to all of OS X users not being able to open localhost:2500:
as of now, it only works on Tiger, not Panther, Jaguar or anything,
because recent instiki requires recent ruby which is just not there.
I''ve tried compiling ruby on OS X myself but it needs a fixed version
of readline library which is one of the system libraries and while I
successfully compiled it from source and it works fine it''s not
something your average Joe user will be comfortable with. Thus
infamous feature of Instiki "there''s no step three"
doesn''t quite cut
it. I repeat, in Tiger it works just fine and thus Jaguar and Panther
users should either help me find some compatible
''all-inclusive''
package with latest ruby or upgrade to 10.4 and enjoy Instiki goodness
right off the bat.

However I don''t know how to start it or if it starts automatically or
how to get an output from it.
