hlpurge

Synopsis

hlpurge [options]

Description

hlpurge functions to remove specified URLs from the databases as well as bad URLs, unretrieved URLs, obsolete documents, etc. It is recommended that hlpurge be run after htdig to clean out any documents of this sort.

Options

-
URL input. Read in a list of URLs to remove from the standard input, one per line.
-a
Use alternate work files. Tells hlpurge to append .work to the database files allowing it to operate on a second set of databases.
-c configfile
Use the specified configfile file instead of the default.
-u
URL input. Add this URL to the list of URLs to remove. This can be specified multiple times.
-v
Verbose mode. This increases the verbosity of the program. Using more than 2 is probably only useful for debugging purposes. The default verbose mode gives a progress on what it is doing and where it is.

Files

CONFIG_DIR/htdig.conf
The default configuration file.
