No. The script includes commands that users would typically do, but explains why some of them are not necessary. You *can* copy the db.docs.index file, but you'll just be using extra space. It's only used when indexing, which is why the indexing script leaves it in place. > Is there a document as to what each db file is and how it is used in > the overall ht://Dig process? The script you mention (as well as the 3.1.x rundig.sh analogue) does explain which databases are only used when indexing. They are not moved or copied. > I see that some other scripts indicate that it is not necessary to > rebuild endings and synonym files once they have been created.

So if you change english.0 or synonyms, then the databases will need to be regenerated. -- -Geoff Hutchison Williams Students Online http://wso.williams.edu/ ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ 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
