You could conceivably run it on a CD, though you would need to come up with some method to access the htsearch CGI. Currently it assumes a browser interface, which means that a webserver must be running. You can run htsearch from the command-line (or a system/popen call) so it shouldn't be hard to cook up a light-weight interface and templates to meet your needs. Take a look at some of the PHP and Perl "wrappers" in the contrib/ directory of the source and the contrib/ section of the ht://Dig website. > If not, does anyone know of a solution that will work on both a site > served via the Internet and a duplicate to be run strictly from a CD? There are other search engine products. A website that follows these products and lists reviews, features, etc. is http://www.searchtools.com/ > I currently work for the Georgia Tech Research Corporation. If htdig > is available to run on a CD, will any licencing be needed on our end? ht://Dig is available under the GNU General Public License. There is no differentiation based on use, though in this particular case, you are arguably distributing the software, so you would need to make sure people have the source code available (either on the CD or a notice stating that the code is available from some other source). -- -Geoff Hutchison Williams Students Online http://wso.williams.edu/ ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ htdig-general mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, send a message to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with a subject of unsubscribe FAQ: http://htdig.sourceforge.net/FAQ.html
