.TH htsearch 1 "6 October 2001" .\" NAME should be all caps, SECTION should be 1-8, maybe w/ subsection .\" other parms are allowed: see man(7), man(1) .SH NAME htsearch \- create document index and word database for the ht://Dig search engine .SH SYNOPSIS .B htsearch .I "[options]" "[query_string]" .SH "DESCRIPTION" .I Htsearch is used to search in de databases created by \fIhtdig\fR for content. is the actual search engine of the \fIhtdig\fR search system. It is a CGI program that is expected to be invoked by an HTML form. It will accept both the GET and POST methods of passing data to the CGI program. .SH OPTIONS .TP .B query_string A CGI-style query string can be given as a single argument, and is only used if the REQUEST_METHOD environment variable is not set. If no query_string is given, and REQUEST_METHOD is not set, htsearch will prompt for the query. .TP .B \-c \fIconfigfile\fR Use the specified .I configfile instead of the default (for security reasons this option is only available when htsearch is used on the commandline). .TP .B \-v \-d Run in verbose mode. This increases the verbosity of the program. Using more than 2 is probably only useful for debugging purposes. The default verbose mode gives a progress on what it is doing and where it is. .SH "FILES" .TP .B @DEFAULT_CONFIG_FILE@ The default configuration file. .TP .B @COMMON_DIR@/header.html The default search results header file .TP .B @COMMON_DIR@/footer.html The default search results footer file .TP .B @COMMON_DIR@/wrapper.html The default search results wrapper file, that contains the header and footer together in one file .TP .B @COMMON_DIR@/nomatch.html The default 'no matches found' HTML file .TP .B @COMMON_DIR@/syntax.html The default file that explains boolean expression syntax errors .SH "SEE ALSO" Please refer to the HTML pages (in the htdig-doc package) .B /usr/share/doc/htdig-doc/html/index.html and the manual pages .I htdig(1) and .I htmerge(1) for a detailed description of ht://Dig and its commands. .SH AUTHOR This manual page was written by Stijn de Bekker, based on the HTML documentation of ht://Dig.
