scrollkeeper.conf

SCROLLKEEPER.CONF(5)                                            File Formats Manual                                           SCROLLKEEPER.CONF(5)

NAME

       scrollkeeper.conf - ScrollKeeper configuration file

SYNOPSIS

       System-wide configuration of ScrollKeeper

DESCRIPTION

       The  system-wide  scrollkeeper.conf  file  is  typically  installed  at  /etc/scrollkeeper.conf.  It stores the default OMF paths which are
       searched by scrollkeeper-update (8) to update the ScrollKeeper documentation catalog.  The paths are held by the OMF_DIR variable which  is
       assigned to a colon (:) delimited list of paths.

       Comment lines begin with the (#) character.

EXAMPLE

       A typical scrollkeeper.conf file will look like:

       # Comment
       OMF_DIR=/usr/share/omf:/usr/local/share/omf:/opt/gnome/share/omf:/opt/gnome-2.0/share/omf:/opt/kde/omf

NOTES

       Any user on the system is able to use the scrollkeeper-update (8) command to generate a ScrollKeeper database at any path that the user has
       write permission to.  The user can over-ride the system default OMF_DIR path variable by  setting  a  shell  variable  of  the  same  name,
       OMF_DIR.  In this way, a user can create a document catalog which contains a superset of the system documentation, or a completely indepen-
       dent set of documents which the user may be interested in.

       Note that most applications will register its documentation at install time, and unregister it at uninstall time.  Thus, a user  who  keeps
       their  own  personal ScrollKeeper database may need to periodically run scrollkeeper-update (8) manually (or with cron) to keep their data-
       base up-to-date.
