In the HTML Form that you use for launching htsearch you can place a
hidden input tag with the name 'config' like the code snippet below:
------------------- HTML ---------------------
<FORM METHOD="post" ACTION="/cgi-bin/htsearch">
<TABLE>
<TR>
<TD WIDTH="96"> <FONT SIZE="-1">Search for:</FONT></TD>
<TD COLSPAN="4"> <INPUT TYPE="text" SIZE="40" NAME="words"
VALUE=""> <INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Search"></TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="method" VALUE="and">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="format" VALUE="builtin-long">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="restrict" VALUE="">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="exclude" VALUE="">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="config" VALUE="manpages">
</FORM>
---------------- /HTML -----------------------
See: http://www.htdig.org/htsearch.html for more information about the
parameters htsearch can accept.
