The names should be either (a) A number followed by .html or (b) An uppercase letter followed by at least one and as many as you like lowercase letters, followed by .html . All other files in that directory are ignored. 2. cd to the directory /public/pub/htdocs/IRT and run the program ~david/irt/bin/irtpretty This will copy the files with some changes into the directory /public/pub/htdocs/IRT/out There will be files called out and err that can be examined for debug info and then deleted. The file auto_index.html is a good start for a index.html file but will need editing and merging with the existing index.html in the records directory. 3. When you are sure that is ok, rename the records directory to be something else (for backup purposes, in case you have to go back to step 1.) and rename the out directory to be record. 4. cd to the directory /public/pub/htdocs/IRT and run the program ~david/irt/bin/idx This will read the files in records and produce a full text index in the directory words. 5. It looks like salami or mkindex.html has been used at some stage. There is no need to run these again because their raw data has not changed as far as i know. 6. Touch up the various index.html pages by hand because they probably still aren't completely correct.
