NAME

       httpindex - HTTP front-end for SWISH++ indexer

SYNOPSIS

       wget [ options ] URL...	2>&1 | httpindex [ options ]

DESCRIPTION

       httpindex is a front-end for index++(1) to index files copied from remote servers using wget(1).  The files (in a copy of the remote direc-
       tory structure) can be kept, deleted, or replaced with their descriptions after indexing.

OPTIONS

   wget Options
       The wget(1) options that are required are: -A, -nv, -r, and -x; the ones that are highly recommended are: -l, -nh, -t, and  -w.	 (See  the
       EXAMPLE.)

   httpindex Options
       httpindex accepts the same short options as index++(1) except for -H, -I, -l, -r, -S, and -V.

       The following options are unique to httpindex:

       -d     Replace the text of local copies of retrieved files with their descriptions after they have been indexed.  This is useful to display
	      file descriptions in search results without having to have complete copies of the remote files thus saving filesystem  space.   (See
	      the extract_description() function in WWW(3) for details about how descriptions are extracted.)

       -D     Delete  the  local copies of retrieved files after they have been indexed.  This prevents your local filesystem from filling up with
	      copies of remote files.

EXAMPLE

       To index all HTML and text files on a remote web server keeping descriptions locally:

	    wget -A html,txt -linf -t2 -rxnv -nh -w2 http://www.foo.com 2>&1 |
	    httpindex -d -e'html:*.html,text:*.txt'

       Note that you need to redirect wget(1)'s output from standard error to standard output in order to pipe it to httpindex.

EXIT STATUS

       Exits with a value of zero only if indexing completed sucessfully; non-zero otherwise.

CAVEATS

       In addition to those for index++(1), httpindex does not correctly handle the use of multiple -e, -E, -m, or -M options  (because  the  Perl
       script uses the standard GetOpt::Std package for processing command-line options that doesn't).	The last of any of those options ``wins.''

       The work-around is to use multiple values for those options seperated by commas to a single one of those options.  For example, if you want
       to do:

	    httpindex -e'html:*.html' -e'text:*.txt'

       do this instead:

	    httpindex -e'html:*.html,text:*.txt'

SYNOPSIS

       w3m [options] [URL or filename]

       as files residing on remote systems. It can display HTML tables and frames.  In addition, it can be used as a "pager" in much the same man-
       ner as "more" or "less".  Current versions of w3m run on Unix (Solaris, SunOS, HP-UX, Linux, FreeBSD, and EWS4800) and on Microsoft Windows
       9x/NT.

	      $ cat foo.html | w3m -T text/html

       or
	      $ cat foo.html | w3m -dump -T text/html >foo.txt
