## NAME

IkiWiki::Plugin::mscgen - embed message sequence chart

## SYNOPSIS

In the ikiwiki setup file, enable this plugin by adding it to the list of active plugins.

    add_plugins:
      - mscgen

## DESCRIPTION

This plugin provides the msc directive. This directive allows embedding mscgen message sequence chart graphs in an ikiwiki page.

Here's an example that shows how an mscgen message sequence chart is embedded into an ikiwiki page.

    [[!msc  src="""
      arcgradient = 8;

      a [label="Client"],b [label="Server"];

      a=>b [label="data1"];
      a-xb [label="data2"];
      a=>b [label="data3"];
      a<=b [label="ack1, nack2"];
      a=>b [label="data2", arcskip="1"];
      |||;
      a<=b [label="ack3"];
      |||;
    """]]

Security implications: to be determined.

This plugin borrows heavily from the graphviz plugin written by JoshTriplett.
