Twikistore

This package uses a Twiki page as a global, persistent dictionary. It assumes that the Twiki page is updateable by the TwikiGuest account (I set up a default Twiki service with Debian and this happened automatically, but YMMV).

To use, simply import the TwikiStore.ozf functor and start using:

functor
import TwikiStore at 'x-ozlib://keving/net/TwikiStore.ozf'
define
     ...
   UploadTwikiCacheURL = 'http://twikihost/cgi-bin/twiki/upload/Main/ScratchArea'
   GetTwikiCacheURL = 'http://twikihost/cgi-bin/twiki/view/Main/ScratchArea'
     ...
   {TwikiStore.store UploadTwikiCacheURL Key OzValue}
     ...
   OzValue = {TwikiStore.get GetTwikiCacheURL Key}                                            
     ...
end

Key is an atom under which a pickle of the value is stored. The values are stored as attachments on the Wiki page. Every update causes the twiki page to create a fresh revision (and there is no garbage collection!). But I find it useful for my purposes.
