Indexing a directory of files

[Thunderstone]

I've looked through the documentation, but am still unclear about
something.
If I just want to index a directory of HTML files, without having it walk
through the links, is it possible? and if so, what is the syntax?

Thanks in advance,
Steve Bohler

(Presumably your web server returns an index of files when a directory
is fetched.) If you just want to fetch a single page, without fetching
its links, use the -a option (fetch a single page).

If you want to fetch the directory index _and_ its immediate files,
but no further, use -D1 (limit depth to 1).

See http://docs.thunderstone.com/gw2man/node21.html.

This is going to be exciting. One more burning question.

Does the free or commercial version of webinator 2.0
support ORDER BY in the SQL SELECT statement?

Our Server returns an access error if you try to fetch a directory, unless
it has an index.html file in it, in which case it displays that page.

I didn't see the -D option, but I'll give it a try.

Thanks!

Yep, both versions have it.
