Great work!

I'm really interested in international language support in wiki module since the current one has very poor support. My first impression of DFWiki is... it greatly understand my UTF-8 text! Its index, navigation and almost all other blocks work perfectly!

A lint I found is that the page list block does not show asian multi-byte characters because the block extracts the first BYTE of each page title. I know indexing of asian words may be a hard task. As a first step for addressing, can you use mb_substr to extract the first CHARACTER in get_index function (when mbstring extension is loaded)? Also, can you get rid of ISO-8859-1 characters in the function?

Thanks for the great job!

Ah, another lint...
"Differences" page in history tab is full of garbled characters.  This is easily fixed by replacing htmlentities with htmlspecialchars in wiki/hist.php.  The former function assumes internal text is all encoded in ISO-8859-1.
Thanks.

Sorry, but yet another one.
"Differences" page uses "·" but it must be "·" for non ISO-8859-1 environment.
