Help/text2pngPlugin

Convert text into a png image using GD without using WikiPluginCached. The images are stored in a private <PHPWIKI_DIR>/images/ subdirectory instead, which are not timestamp checked at all. Delete the .png file(s) if you change anything.

This is a really simple and stupid plugin, which might need some work.
