Perhaps it isn't a realistic solution for your particular case,
but you might consider writing a little script that recurses
through the directories, finds the files of interest, and adds
a URI for each one to a file. You could then pass that file to
ht://Dig using

  start_url: `name_of_url_file`

If the file contains the complete list of URI's, you can set
max_hop_count to 0 so that ht://Dig doesn't try to follow any
of the links it finds in the indexed pages.
