NAME

external - replicate $HOME/index.html closure to $HOME/external

SYNOPSIS

external [ options ]

DESCRIPTION

external replicates the closure of $HOME/index.html to $HOME/external by copying updated files and deleting files no longer referenced in $HOME. htmlrefs(1) is used to do the copy.

$HOME/index.html should contain <LINK> references to the document root directory, and optionally the cgi bin and data directories. The document root directory must have the rel=document-root attribute.

OPTIONS

-F, --force
Copy all referenced files.
-l, --limit=pattern
Limit --copy and --remove operations to path names matching pattern.
-n, --exec
--noexec shows actions but does not execute. On by default; -n means --noexec.
-S, --symlink
symlink(2) files rather than copy.
-v, --verbose
Trace each action as it is executed.
