How does htmerge dtermined whether or not a document has changed 
since the last run?

local_urls?  I haven't heard of that.  I'm guessing this is where htdig is 
running on the same box as the web server. If so, that applies to my 
situation.  At present, I'm running via http.  What should I look for in 
order to use local_urls?

Thank you.  I already use htdig for indexing a mailing list archive at 
http://www.unixathome.org/adsl/.  Using incremental should 
dramatically improve things.  In fact, messages are added to the archive 
as they arrive from the mailing list.  I should be able to update the index 
dynamically as well.

This is sounding so promising, I'm going to use it for 
http://freebsddiary.org/ where articles are updated all the time and 
dynamic content in the form of user feedback is sure to occur sometime 
soon.

thank you.  very helpful.
