I'm using htdig (3.1.5) to index a local collection of documents (html, pdf, ps). The collection grows slowly but regularly and I'd like to keep the index current. So far, my understanding was that I can update an existing index with htdig and htmerge. But I found that htdig seems to parse every document again and for this has to conver pdf and ps files to text again. This conversion is pretty time-consuming.
What I don't understand is, if it has to be that way or if I can set some config attribute to avoid this behavior. Using or omitting the -i option to htdig didn't make a difference. My htdig.conf contains nothing spectacular start_url: http://localdocs/ local_urls: http://localdocs/=/pub/doc/ Thus, if possible, htdig accesses files directly through the file system. local_urls_only is false by default; this way Apache generates directory listings.
