I wrote a CGI script that returns a zip file containing the current data of the public AceWiki 
instances:

Yes, the words can contain only letters, numbers, and hyphens. Blanks are also supported by AceWiki 
but they are represented by underscores internally. Other special characters are not supported at 
the moment. It's planned to update the ACE parser (or rather its tokenizer) to be more flexible in 
this respect.

In the editor, one has to use the Delete-button, the menus, and the text field to change or create a 
sentence. I agree that it would be nicer if one could edit the text directly, but the Echo Web 
Framework misses change listeners that would fire an event each time the text has changed. I hope 
that this will be possible in some way in the future.

Pasting a text into the text field (but not into the read-only text area) should be possible. This 
might be browser dependent.

That's indeed a bug. Thanks for reporting it!
