NAME
     gwd - Launches the GeneWeb Process

SYNOPSIS
     gwd [ command-line switches ]

DESCRIPTION
     gwd  launches the GeneWeb "daemon" process.  Once this is done, you can at-
     tach to it using a web browser to view your genealogical data.
     Connect to the GeneWeb process using a standard web browser using the  fol-
     lowing:
	 http://localhost:2317/base
	 http://127.0.0.1:2317/base
	 http://address:2317/base
	 http://address:port/base
     where "base" is the name of the database file.
     GeneWeb  is coded in the functional language Objective CAML, and can be ex-
     tended with byte-code or compiled code written in that language.

     The primary documentation of gwd is in the HTML , documentation, which  you
     can  find	in the documentation directory (/usr/share/doc/geneweb on Debian
     systems).
     Please look there for complete and up-to-date documentation.
