Those are two separate things. Possibly interacting.<br>
What does 'crashed horribly' actually mean?<br>

I'm not sure you should it's there because people like it, and understand it.<br>

I think you are overreacting. But if you are happy to teach everyone<br>
to use git and an editor instead then yes we could get rid of it. But<br>
it's there because many years of trying to teach everyone just that<br>
(hg+editor) got increasingly hard work because they all want a wiki<br>
and won't install+setup ssh+tortoise and don't understand what 'check<br>
out a repository' means.<br>
<br>
Martin wrote that code, so I don't know where it is, but try searching<br>
for it in the troggle code or templates, then if you just remove it<br>
from the html it'll effeetively be disabled even though the code/URL<br>
would still work.<br>
