No. The index is not usable until it is complete.


No. You would need to unindex, and start over.


I'm not quite sure what you mean by joining two indexes. You can walk a
number of pages, index them, walk some more, update the index, and repeat
will you have all the pages you need. This will require less total disk
space than indexing all the pages in one shot. It will take longer though.


Errors are logged to the log file, which is gw.log by default. They should
also appear to the screen.


We are working on it, but don't have a definate release date yet.

Hello,

I want to use Webinator as a front end for our publication archive,
not for my entire site. Is it possible to Index a single directory
that contains many subdirectories and HTML files? There are no URL's
to any of these files from any Index page. I've only been able to
create a index for my site.

Thanks,

John
