CHANGES for makehomeidx
MM/DD/YY
===========================================================================
01/02/96 (1.1.1)
o Fixed bug where no links were created if the -incfile option
was NOT specified.
===========================================================================
11/22/95 (1.1.0)
o Added the -incfile option for the ability to only check
specified users for home pages.
o Added the -excfile option for the ability to exclude specific
users from being indexed.
o If the -title string contains HTML tags, the tags are
stripped out for the TITLE element, but preserved for the
H1 element.
o makehomeidx is now detects if the TITLE element is defined
in the file specified by -header. If so, makehomeidx will
*ignore* the -title argument and not insert the <html>,
<head>, <body>, and <h1> tags. It is up to the header file
to include them.
o If a </body> or </html> tag exists in the -footer file,
makehomeidx will not insert those tags in the output file.
===========================================================================
07/21/94 (1.0.1)
o If '-' is specified as the passwd file via the -passwd
option, makehomeidx will read the passwd file from
standard input. Useful if passwd file is obtained
via NIS. Example:
% ypcat passwd | makehomeidx -passwd - homepages.html
