NAME
htsearch - create document index and word database for
the ht://Dig search engine
SYNOPSIS
htsearch [options] [query_string]
DESCRIPTION
Htsearch is used to search in de
databases created by htdig for content. is the actual search
engine of the htdig 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.
OPTIONS
- 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.
- -c configfile
- Use the specified configfile instead of the default (for
security reasons this option is only available when htsearch is
used on the commandline).
- -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.
