WikiTraccs GUI vs. WikiTraccs Console

This article is a resource where you can find information about the two WikiTraccs flavors.

WikiTraccs consists of two applications: WikiTraccs.GUI and WikiTraccs.Console.

Note

When you extract the release package there are two folders: WikiTraccs.GUI and WikiTraccs.Console, containing the respective applications.

WikiTraccs.GUI is a graphical frontend that can be used to get started quickly without having to learn how to use the configuration file. When chosing to start the transformation WikiTraccs.GUI launches WikiTraccs.Console and passes along the configuration. From then on the work is done solely by WikiTraccs.Console.
