This is a CGI program that maintains a user-editable FAQ. It uses RCS
|
|
|
|
|
to keep track of changes to individual FAQ entries. It is fully
|
|
|
|
|
configurable; everything you might want to change when using this
|
|
|
|
|
program to maintain some other FAQ than the Python FAQ is contained in
|
|
|
|
|
the configuration module, faqconf.py.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that this is not an executable script; it's an importable module.

The actual script in cgi-bin is minimal.

Files:

|
|
|
faqw.py executable script to be edited and installed in cgi-bin
|
|
|
|
|
faqwin.py main module, lives in same directory as FAQ entry files
|
|
|
|
|
faqconf.py main configuration module
|
|
|
|
|
faqcust.py additional local customization module (optional)

The most important setup consideration is that the directory and the
|
|
|
|
|
RCS subdirectory must be world-writable, since the CGI script runs as
|
|
|
|
|
nobody!
