Hi htdig folks, A couple of residual questions after trying out ht://dig (which I find really great!).
I think this first one is simpler. Now that I know how great htdig is, I'd like to use it to index the local files on my workstation. Is it possible to get htdig to simply iterate recursively through a filesystem, rather than following hyperlinks? Perhaps using the local_* variables somehow? I'm also experimenting with using namazu for this (www.namazu.org), but it seems a bit buggy & I'd rather have one search syntax for all the search enginess. That's one question. The other one's a bit more complex, I think. I first posted it to the list a couple of days ago, but it was at the bottom of a long, self-generated problem I solved myself immediately thereafter, so I worry no one noticed it. so here it is again: my course websites have a fair number of external links. I would love for ht://dig to index the pages linked to, but NOT keep crawling further along the chain of links. That is, when ht://dig sees a link to an external page, it would follow that link, index it, but NOT go any further. Even better would be if those links that wget calls "page-requisite" -- links that need to be loaded in order to view the page properly -- are also indexed. (this behaviour is obviously a kind of combination of limit_urls_to and max_hop_count, but I don't see how one could get precisely this result just by setting the conf variables) In conjuncion with this, I'd also love it if htdig could, like wget, use mozilla's cookies file to access login controlled sites like the new york times. anyway, thanks for all the help.
