After messing around, I did find an answer for parsing pdf and Word files (no luck with either WordPerfect, rtf, or OpenOffice.org yet, but that's less of a concern). Adding the following lines to htdig.conf worked...
external_parsers: application/pdf->text/html /usr/share/htdig/parse_doc.pl \ application/msword->text/html /usr/share/htdig/parse_doc.pl I had found, in the examples file, a doc2html.pl file, which I struggled to set up. This is not the file to use for Debian Etch, apparently. It did not work. Mark ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
