INSTALLING SWISH
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Compiling and installing is ismple:

 1) Go to the src directory and edit the default variables in
    "config.h" to your liking.  NOTE: Nearly all of these may
    be overriden in configuration files, and many may be overridden
    on the command line.  See the Configuration Guide for details.

 2) Go back to the parent directory, make sure the
    Makefile variables are OK, and type "make".

 3) Type "make test" for a simple indexing test.  The
    file "test.html" in the Test/ directory will be
    indexed and searched. If it works, you'll see a
    message reporting success.  If you want to play
    more, there's also a sample.swish file in the
    Test/ directory, which indexes the files in Doc/ .

 4) After double-checking the top-level makefile variables,
    install swish and its related docs, scripts, etc., in
    one, simple step:

        make world        - make and install everything

    If you need to later reinstall certain pieces, or just want
    certain pieces installed, here are the pertinent make commands:

        make install         - install swish binary
        make install-docs    - install swish docs
        make install-icons   - install swish icons (for docs and scripts)
        make install-scripts - install swish scripts

 5) Look in the Conf/ directory.  Copy one of the config
    file samples to where you want to use it, and modify it
    to reflect your installation directories, file types to
    index, etc.

 6) You probably want to install w4ais (a web-based front
    end to swish) as well.  For more info on w4ais, see

That's it.
