You can use the script maintenance/edit.php . You can do something like:
$ cat ~/mywork.txt | php mediawiki/maintenance/edit.php \ -u vagner -a
Play with a bit before importing all the text files.

There's also maintenance/importTextFile.php, which could be used with a loop in a shell script to achieve the desired bulk-import.

Well, how about running "php maintenance/importTextFile.php —help" and having a look at the help?

Place the files on the server in a readable location and execute the maintenance/importImages.php script from the command line.

> Can anyone suggest a utility for converting .chm files to Wiki syntax?
First look for a CHM to HTML convertor: http://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/E-book_conversion I like Tubby on the Mac.
Then take the appropriate html and convert to Mediawiki syntax, like here: http://labs.seapine.com/htmltowiki.cgi
