htsearch - create document index and word database for the ht://Dig search engine

       This manual page was written by Stijn de Bekker and updated by Robert Ribnitz. It is based  on  the  HTML
       documentation of ht://Dig.

                                                 6 October 2001                                      htsearch(1)

Htsearch  is  used  to sift through the  databases created by htdig for content.  It is the actual search
       engine of the htdig search system. It is a CGI program that is expected to be invoked by an HTML form. It
       will accept both the GET and POST methods of passing data to the CGI program.

/etc/htdig/htdig.conf
              The default configuration file.

       /etc/htdig/header.html
              The default search results header file

       /etc/htdig/footer.html
              The default search results footer file

       /etc/htdig/wrapper.html
              The default search results wrapper file, that contains the header and footer together in one file

       /etc/htdig/nomatch.html
              The default 'no matches found' HTML file

       /etc/htdig/syntax.html
              The default file that explains boolean expression syntax errors

query_string
              A CGI-style query string can be given as a single argument, and is only used if the REQUEST_METHOD
              environment variable is not set.  If no query_string is given,  and  REQUEST_METHOD  is  not  set,
              htsearch will prompt for the query.

       -cconfigfile
              Use  the  specified  configfile  instead  of the default (for security reasons this option is only
              available when htsearch is used on the command line).

       -v-d  Run in verbose mode.  This increases the verbosity of the program.  Using more than 2 is  probably
              only useful for debugging purposes.  The default verbose mode gives a progress on what it is doing
              and where it is.

       Please  refer  to  the HTML pages (in the htdig-doc package) /usr/share/doc/htdig-doc/html/index.html and
       the manual pages htdig(1) and htmerge(1) for a detailed description of ht://Dig and its commands.
