Adding to our private WWW space

These files live in /home/gopher/data/private.

The main 'home page' is named home.html. This is what the Lynx client on nkosi starts with. The URL for this page is http://gopher.well.sf.ca.us:70/0/private/home.html

If you want to add a new HTML document to this directory, you must do two things:

  1. Create the HTML document and get it into the private directory. URLs can be relative to our server or absolute pointers to other places.
  2. Add an entry for the HTML file to private/menu
Here are a couple of sample entries:
   Name=Editor's Home
   Path=0/private/home.html
   #
   Name=Adding HTML things
   Path=0/private/adding.html

   Name=How to write HTML
   Path=0/private/html-howto.html
The "Name" field isn't used by anything, but it does make the file names less cryptic.
