[Scribo] About urls

Hi all,

I wrote a small method to replace all special characters with '-'. So
far it works great. But what if you want to create a link like:
http://mysite.com/foo/bar.html ?

The result will be http://mysite.com/foo-bar.html. On the other hand if
we allow '/' in the links, links like 'Aida/Web' will keep the '/'...

So, what should we do ? I think we should allow the slash in urls, at
least in wikis and sites.

Cheers,

Nicolas

Having slash in url is very handy for making kind of hierarchy of
content. For instance on aidaweb.si I use that trick for news. You can
add news simply by [News title>news/news-title].
