With (#parseWiki: wiki) it generates the document structure resulting from
the wiki syntax. Now with (#renderWiki: document) it does the reverse: From
a given document structure, it generates the wiki syntax, that in fact has
built this document structure. So the test "self assert: (self renderWiki:
(self parseWiki: wiki)) = wiki" is okay iff the parsed wiki-syntax (that's a
document structure) can be rendered back to the original wiki-syntax, that
has generated the document structure. This mechanism is also used when an
user wants to edit his page, because internally his page is stored as a
document structure, but when user wants to change his page, he should see
the page in wiki-syntax. So #renderWiki renders wiki-syntax, like
#renderHtml renders html.

David
