OK, but it's nice to keep replying to the list. For one, I'll read it sooner (since it doesn't end up in the depths of my inbox) and for another, other people read and respond to the list. > I D/L'd your script and adjusted the dirs to my needs.

Why are you using a temporary directory? It's not really necessary. The script was originally written to handle having your databases and such all in one directory--the .work files won't clobber your working databases until right at the end. If you're using a temporary directory for indexing, leave the .work files in place and simply change the parts of the script that copy the .work versions to the regular versions to copy them into your working directory. Leave the .work files in place so that they'll be picked up on the next indexing run--htsearch doesn't need db.wordlist, for example, so you don't want duplicate copies of everything. -- -Geoff Hutchison Williams Students Online http://wso.williams.edu/ _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm _______________________________________________ htdig-general mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, send a message to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with a subject of unsubscribe FAQ: http://htdig.sourceforge.net/FAQ.html
