mkhtmlindex(1)      UNIX Programmer's Manual       mkhtmlindex(1)

NAME

     mkhtmlindex - generate index files for HTML man pages

SYNOPSIS

     mkhtmlindex htmlmandir

DESCRIPTION

     The mkhtmlindex program generates index files for a direc-
     tory of HTML-formatted manual pages. It searches for files
     whose names are of the form name.1.html, and outputs index
     files manindex1.html, manindex.2.html, and so on, one for
     each manual volume. Empty index files will be removed. Names
     and descriptions are found by scanning the first <H2> sec-
     tion of each page.

OPTIONS

     mkhtmlindex takes only one argument: the directory to pro-
     cess.

NOTES

     This utility is currently rather specific to XFree86. In
     particular, the format of the index files it outputs is not
     configurable, nor is the HTML formatting it expects of
     manual pages.
