here is a php hack to list contents of a directory. might not be as quick as c or perl, but does the job. just place it in whatever directory you want to list the contents of, and call it index.php

i'm not sure if this will work with the AutoIndexCommand parameter yet or not. i'm still testing. here is the url:

Right, this is now implemented in the new beta, which I have just put
online.

If you want to auto-index a directory (and all subdirectories), use
something like

 Control {
   Alias /some-alias
   Location /some-location
   AutoIndexCommand /usr/local/libexec/dir.cgi
 }

The AutoIndexCommand must be a CGI script that lists the contents of the
current directory. I believe someone posted a PHP auto-indexer to this
list some time ago. I have also hacked together a simple lister in C (see
www.mathopd.org/faq.html for details.)
