GLOBAL for Debian
-----------------
See /usr/doc/global/README.gz and README.htmake.gz or the
relevant man pages for general usage details.
The Debian version of GLOBAL has been configured to use a
centralised cgi search mechanism I have developed for it.
If you want to generate searchable html source but don't
like to have .htaccess files or cgi execution enabled all
over the place, then consider using 'htmake' in place of
'htags' to generate your hypertext source. See the htmake
manual page for details.
gtags.el for emacs and patches for nvi to enable their use
with GLOBAL can be found in the ./examples directory.
The global.conf file also found there should be copied to
/etc/gtags if you wish to make use of it's facilities, but
at present it is considered 'undocumented' by the
upstream author.
The systags script has been included in this package by
request, but the author has also warned that it is
'not properly generic' yet.
Thanks to Sergio Talens-Oliag <sto@iti.upv.es> for
contributing a man page for it.
Lastly, I have also added a -C option for htags which
produces gzipped html files with a suffix of html.gz
This makes use of the ghtml.cgi file unnecessary for
Debian systems, as they should decompress html.gz files
transparently.
(UPDATE: FreeBSD (the upstream authors platform) does not
presently deal with html.gz files the same way that Debian
does, hence htags -c option creates .ghtml files by default.
The -C option has been added as a convenience for Debian
users, but this facility may be implemented differently
in the future. An alternate option for Debian users is
to specify html.gz as the default suffix in a global.conf
file which will override the suffix created with -c, but
be aware that this may raise platform dependency issues
in cross platform environments. We hope this issue will
be cleanly resolved in the future.)
Comments, patches, praise, and blathering flames can
be sent along with suggestions for improvement to
Ron <ron@microtronics.com.au>
I hope you find this software as useful as I have.
