There seems to be a problem with tilde filenames. I don't know if I can 
fix that quickly, maybe for now use only filenames that do not contain 
special characters.
I will have a closer look at the "if" thing, but I think I tried this 
when we set up the wiki and it did not work/needs some additional 
"enable"-switch.
But I will try again.
