Apologies for the non-functional digital ID. I swear - this email stuff

Subject: RE: [xwiki-users] How to specify an attachment?
{attach:filename.doc} places "filename.doc" as the link name. What I want
to do is give it a "friendlier" name. Many of the documents we want to
post
have names like:
2006.06.11.docid-01234567890-app8192.pdf
Which isn't friendly at all, when what we want to say is "Approved
Contract
(PDF)"
I'll use the <a href> version.
