"No such extension"....
I take it I can copy and paste the files off the web page?
Also, how difficult would it be to extend it to allow multiple commands
(I
have 8 commands I need to run right now; that's going to run up to 9
shortly. I can set up 9 special pages by changing the names but that
seems like overkill v. just passing an argument to select the command.)
Yeah, you can copy and paste the files. I thought that kind of more
complicated stuff was what MaintenanceShell was designed to do? In what
way
was MaintenanceShell too broad?

Maybe I'm missing something about the maintenance shell. I don't want my
users to see any of the "bones"; I just want them to click on a link and
have things done.
I thought maintenance shell gives you a terminal type environment you then
can work in with specific commands?
We're using the wiki to create manuals, and I want my editors to be able
to click a link and create a release version that automatically gets
copied to a download directory. The release version is date stamped and
the script creates a link to the current version of the manual. I don't
want to give them access to the server or have them have to do anything
more.
I'll look at maintenance shell again, too, while I'm working on this.
