Question

How can I configure my TWiki so that users see

    http://mydomain.org/Area/PageName

instead of the long

    http://mydomain.org/twiki/bin/view/Area/PageName

The former reads better and is more efficient to type. If it is easy to obtain with Aliases or something I'd love it. Good URL design adds value to the Net. URLs are how folks verify where they are. A user does not want to be in the "bin" and does not want to be told the self evident - you are "view"ing a page.

Just a design goal. Is there an easy way to do this with Aliases or something?

Thanks
