We had a Gopher server running on aISparc, and found that by massaging the help libraries slightly and movingKthe resulting files to this server we could obtain the same information viaIkeyword searches. By adding tags to each entry the tree structure of the4original VMS help file can be maintained (sort of).

It can take a couple of hoursI to run. Warning - although the files produced don't usually take up H much more space than the original library, there can be thousands ofK them!!!. The procedure moves these files to the target machine as eachF library is processed, and deletes the temporary files on the VAX. I5. Log onto the Target machine and index the files that have been moved I there. Here is the command for SunOs, Gopher1.1, index to be called F "local", files in /home/g4_sever/locdocs/Archive. The -pos option< allows searches for literal strings like "fred said go".K % waisindex -d local -r -pos -t first_line /home/g4_sever/locdocs/ArchiveH Waisindexing on a Sparc1 is pretty quick, our files only take about 10 minutes.J6.
