GNUSearch v0.0.8 Copyright 2000 Hector Facundo Arena http://www.cnhtech.com/~hfa hf@arena.org.ar Welcome to GNUSearch, my little contribution to the free software community. GNUSearch is a search engine fully developed in Perl 5. It can store the URL, Title and Description of the page. And it's very fast! You can put it on your site, but please, send me an email with your URL so I can add it to the main page of GNUSearch. NOTE: IT ONLY WORKS WITH THE HTML 'POST' METHOD. DON'T USE 'GET' ON YOUR FORMS. HOW TO INSTALL -------------- 1. Modify file 'config.pl' 2. Change first line in all files if your perl binary file is placed other than /usr/bin/perl 3. Copy all files from cgi directory to your /cgi-bin directory. 4. Copy all files from html directory to your html directory and edit it to suit your needs 5. chmod'em all to 755 (chmod 755 *.cgi; chmod 755 *.pl) 6. Copy the filebase.txt file to your /cgi-bin directory and chmod 666. 7. Copy the words.txt file to your /cgi-bin directory and chmod 666. 8. Enjoy! Use the file words.txt to restrict words of not-allowed-content sites. TIPS ---- Remember to make a daily backup of the filebase.txt file. Just for security. AUTHOR's SECTION ---------------- I'm not good doing documentation of my own software. So if you got any problem, send me an email to hf@arena.org.ar FILES ----- add.cgi The add link module. search.cgi The main search engine. config.pl Configuration module. parse.pl Parsing module filebase.txt The links database words.txt The list of words to check when detecting URL's with not allowed content.
