		  Synopsis
		
- 
		htmerge [options]
	  
	  - 
		
		  Description
		
- 
		Htmerge is used to create a document index and word
		database from the files that were created by
		htdig. These databases are then used by
		htsearch to perform
		the actual searched.
	  
	  - 
		
		  Options
		
- 
		
		  - 
			-a
		  
- 
			Use alternate work files. Tells htdig to append 
			.work to database files, causing a second copy of
			the database to be built. This allows the original
			files to be used by htsearch during the indexing run.
		  
- 
			-c configfile
		  
- 
			Use the specified configuration file instead of the
			default.
		  
- 
			-d
		  
- 
			Prevent the document index from being created.
		  
- 
			-m merge_configfile
		  
- 
		        Merge the databases specified by merge_configfile
		        into the databases specified by -c or the default.
			You will need a separate config file for each of
			the two databases. Then each file will set the
			database_dir or
			database_base
			attribute to change the name of the databases, so
			they are in different directories or files.
 Note: You must run htmerge
			separately on each of the databases created by
			htdig before merging them
			together with this option. This is because merging
			the two wordlists together requires wordlists that
			have already been cleaned up by htmerge.
			Because the -m option allows you to specify only
			one database to be merged into the other, and only
			one -m option may be specified, if you need to merge
			three or more databases together you must run htmerge
			multiple times with the -m option.
- 
			-s
		  
- 
			Print statistics about the document and word databases
			after htmerge has finished.
		  
- 
			-v
		  
- 
			Run in verbose mode. This will provide some hints as to
			the progress of the merge. This can be useful when
			running htmerge interactively since some parts
			(especially the word database creation) can take a very
			long time.
		  
- 
			-w
		  
- 
			Prevent the word database from being created.
		  
 In addition to the command line options, the environment
		variable TMPDIR will be used to designate the
		directory where intermediate files are stored during the
		sorting process.
