I've uploaded to my website the script that handles the FTP upload for
codeconscious.com. See the section called "How these pages were
created" on the following page.

    http://www.codeconscious.com/rebol/rebol-scripts.html

To generate my site I use a slightly modified version of the
text-to-html program that Carl made before make-doc for all the content
on codeconscious.com. I have a build-site script that recursively
travels through a source directory and emits a mirror structure but of
web pages. Along the way it detabs rebol scripts and edits the html
pages generated from the modified make-spec program to include buttons
etc.

Finally a site upload scripts uploads via FTP any changed HTML pages.
It simplisticly determines a change from the size of the file which is
not guaranteed but the site admin (me) is watching. A checksum would be
better.

So making a change on my site involves (1) edit text file (2)
build-site (3) site upload. A single change takes well under a minute.

This simplistic scheme has proved remarkably flexible and easy to deal
with. It is getting a bit old and creaky now, and I know that I could
produce a neater set of scripts but, hey, it works.

Regards,
Brett.
