MKHTMLINDEX(1)		     General Commands Manual		  MKHTMLINDEX(1)

NAME
     mkhtmlindex - generate index files for HTML man pages

SYNOPSIS
     mkhtmlindex htmlmandir

DESCRIPTION
     The  mkhtmlindex program generates index files for a directory of HTML-for-
     matted 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> section of each
     page.

OPTIONS
     mkhtmlindex takes only one argument: the directory to process.

NOTES
     This utility is currently rather specific to X manual pages.   In	particu-
     lar,  the	format of the index files it outputs is not configurable, nor is
     the HTML formatting it expects of manual pages.

AUTHOR
     The version of the mkhtmlindex utility included in  this  X.Org  Foundation
     release was originally written by David Dawes as a part of XFree86.

     Colin Watson wrote this manual page, originally for the Debian Project.
