Jim, I was wrong all along in what I was talking about. Articles in 
twiki do seem to have parent articles, as well as articles in which they 
are linked from, which can be completely different things. The parent 
article is set from the "more topic actions" menu. Sorry for my 
confusion. I think this is a new feature in the new twiki version which 
we now have. I had no seen that "you are here" thing, and yes that is 
useful. So forget everything I said in that previous email.

Perhaps there is a twiki script which can allow us to view the index of 
pages, but indented, taking care of parent/child relationships. Then we 
can check for errors.

Thanks,
Dave
