✨ wml::std::info — Page Information ✨

okay bestie, so this is wml::std::info from the EN Tools manual, section 3. it's literally the page-info girlie of the WML universe and she is so useful, no cap. 💖

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#use wml::std::info

<info style={comment,table,meta,oneline} domainname="..."
      copyright="..." created="..." keywords="..." description="...">

<info:document-url [baseurlvar=VARNAME] [basedirvar=VARNAME]>

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so this include file gives you the <info> tag, and what that tag does is insert all your page's little identity details — the page filename, the author, the copyright, the generator (aka which WML version made it), and the modification time — and it can do all that in various formats and styles. it's giving customizable. it's giving ✨aesthetic✨.

on top of that, it also defines a <document-url> tag, which inserts the absolute URL of the generated page. 🦋

and how does it build that URL, you ask? bestie, it constructs it out of the URL base given in the variables named BASE_URL and BASE_DIR — or, if you want, the one you specify yourself with the attributes baseurlvar and baseurldir. 💅

usually you just define these in your .wmlrc file, sitting at the base directory of your WML page area. like so:

-D BASE_URL=http://www.mysite.dom/~myself
-D BASE_DIR~.

slay. that's the whole vibe. 🔥
