This may not be the best solution, and it's not complete, but this is to
give you a general idea of what I'm thinking:

$lineparts = explode("]]", $pageline);
$lineparts2 = explode("[[", $lineparts[0]);
$pagename = $lineparts2[1];
ereg_replace("[[", "<a href='index.php?page=$pagename'>", $pageline);
ereg_replace("]]", "</a>", $pageline);

Of course, you'd have to modify that to make sure it could handle more than
one set of "[[]]" on a page properly.
