[David Dayton]

When I asked about "plucking" a site from one page but presenting 
another page as the "starting" page, my reasoning was that I could speed 
up the spidering process (or at least I -thought- I could). If I create 
one page with a direct link to every page in the site an tell Plucker to 
grab that with a setting of 2 and not have to worry about Plucker 
marking dozens of other pages for d/l, only to find out it had already 
done so.  However, a giant list of links is unwieldy for navigation on 
the Palm, so I'd rather have a small TOC page.

The real world example is my side project... I run a website consisting 
of video game codes (cough cough), and I've been using Plucker to allow 
easy access to the entire site in a portable form.  The problem is that 
every page of my site contains a menu bar featuring links to dozens of 
other pages, each with dozens of links... if I could have Plucker start 
spidering JUST at the "main index page" and have it only grab that page 
and all linked pages, it would save time when in the "Plucking" process.

Oh, if you want an idea of what the site looks like, head to 
http://codebook.potchgult.com/vgindex.htm . When using Plucker, I use a 
local version of the site with a greatly reduced "front page" (just the 
"navigation bar" on top).
