Now I've gone and done some more... Go to http://leaf.sourceforge.net/pub/oxygen/repository/ ...and tell me what you think. The files are all in that dir, but you can't get there with the index.html in the way. You ought to be able to slogin and go to that dir or I can change things around

[Leaf-devel] Description files: .desc and LEAF Repository

2001-12-06 Thread David Douthitt
I took another look at this. I'd forgotten webdesc was in lua :) but anyway... I created a wrapper that would take an optional list of *.lrp packages on the command line, and generate a web page for all description files ( .desc ) found in the packages. If no list is given, the list of packages
