Greetings Robert,

Since I haven't heard back, I assume that the person who filed the bug 
report you forwarded was satisfied.

I have been thinking some more about your suggestion of defaulting to 
indexing localhost rather than  www.htdig.org.  If we explicitly use  
http://localhost/  then of course the links will only be correct if 
the user running a search is browsing from the webserver itself 
(which will seldom be the case).  It would be quite possible for us 
to set up  htdig.conf  to dig the site where ht://Dig is *built*, but 
that wouldn't help people installing packages.  It seems to me that 
the package installation script is the appropriate place to customise 
the config files.  Can you think of any alternatives?

Thanks,
Lachlan
