A modified version of the wikiwords filter for Webby

interlink.rb

module Webby
class Renderer
  attr_reader :page
end
end

# To use add interlink to the list of filters in the layout.
# Creates links to pages using a MediaWiki-style syntax:
#
# [[main-page]]
# <a href="/main-page.html">Main Page Title</a>
#
# [[Main Page Title]]
# <a href="/main-page.html">Main Page Title</a>
#
# [[main-page|other text]]
# <a href="/main-page.html">other text</a>
