The WWW Hytelnet Gateway

This software is no longer supported at CERN

This is a WWW server which provides access to the hytelnet data. The server runs at CERN and may be run at other institutes. To run it on your site, pick up the source files linked to below. You will also need the hytelnet database of course. To see the results, jump to Each time a request is made, the server picks up the hytelnet file and converts it to HTML. The slow part of this is that the hytelnet link format is ambiguous, as each link may be to a file in the same or a lower directory. This requires each file to be opened checked for existence.

If no file is found at all, an anchor is generated with no link.

The server is built out of an interactive program written by Earl Fogel, Computing Services, University of Saskatchewan, fogel@jester.usask.ca
