Title: laola2html.pl

David:   I knew I forgot something :)  Thanks, I will install Sys::AlarmCall.   I am having one problem with laola2html, sometimes I get an excerpt of:   ��ࡱ�   in the search results for some Word documents, but not all documents and not every time I dig.  If I just run doc2html or laola2html on the very same *.doc file on the command line, I get a normal looking HTML page outputted.   Have you ever encountered anything like this?  Does htdig launch multiple instances of the external parsers/converters, and could this be a factor, since I can't reproduce the effect on the same documents one at a time?   Thanks,   -Greg -----Original Message----- From: David Adams [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, July 05, 2001 8:30 AM To: Holmes, Gregory; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [htdig] laola2html.pl That looks interesting, I will certainly look to including your code in the next release of doc2html, at the moment I'm too pushed for time to do much.   Doc2html version 3.0 does have provision for coping when a utility hangs.  You just have to install the small Perl module Sys::AlarmCall    -- David Adams Computing Services Southampton University
