wnseven_m3

Usage

Overview

wnseven_m is a perl(1) CGI program that is part of the wn(1) HTTP server package. wnseven_m searches file and produces a <ul> HTML list of anchors to sections of the file containing a match for the regular expression in the environment variable QUERY_STRING. A new section is determined to begin when a line matching separator_pattern is found. The text of the anchor is taken from the first line of a section matching section_pattern.

wnseven_m is intended as an Index Search Module of wn(1) (see http:/doc/wn/module.html). This requires that the Search-Module directive be set in the appropriate index file (see http:/doc/wn/appendixB.html). For example, for a mail format file foo in directory dir:

  Search-Module=/usr/lib/cgi-bin/wn/wnseven_m "^From " "^Subject:" foo
