NAME

       installwatch -- Track installation of software

SYNOPSIS

       installwatch [options]  [command]

DESCRIPTION

       installwatch  is a program that is used in order to track the changes made while installing local software (i.e.  "make install"). It moni-
       tors the requested command, and produces a log which indicates all created and modified files. By default it outputs to syslog(3)  using  a
       priority of "LOG_USER | LOG_INFO". This may be overridden by the use of the -o flag. The log format is as follows:

       <return-value> <syscall-name> <argument> #<comment>

       Each field is delimited by a "^I" character if logging to syslog(3), or by a tab when logging to a file.

ENVIRONMENT

       INSTALLWATCH_BACKUP_PATH
		 Set this variable to the location that you want installwatch to copy the original version of files which get modified. The direc-
		 tory will be created if it does not exist, assuming that the parent is writable.

OPTIONS

       These program follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-').  A summary of options is included
       below.

		 -o	   --logfile
		 Directs  that	output from the logged command be written to the filename specified. If the specified file already exists, it will
		 be truncated.

       -r	    --root
		 Sets the directory under which meta-info and translated files	will be stored.

       -t	    --trans
		 Toggle translation capabilities.

       -e	    --exclude
		 Sets a comma separated neutral directory list, that won't be concerned by translation or backups.

       -d	    --dbgfile
		 Specify a debug file.

       -v	--dbglvl
		 Sets the debug level to be used.

       -h	  --help
		 Show help information.

BUGS

       installwatch does not work with programs which are statically linked with libc. Due to LD_PRELOAD limitations, it does not work	with  suid
       programs (this would probably introduce security problems, anyway).

       mknod(2) is not monitored.

NAME

       indexer -- fulltext index generator

SYNOPSIS

       indexer [--config CONFIGFILE]  [--rotate]  [--noprogress  | --quiet ]  [--all  | INDEX ... ]

       indexer --buildstops OUTPUTFILE COUNT [--config CONFIGFILE]  [--noprogress  | --quiet ]	[--all	| INDEX ... ]

       indexer --merge MAIN_INDEX DELTA_INDEX [--config CONFIGFILE]  [--rotate]  [--noprogress	| --quiet ]

DESCRIPTION

       Sphinx  is  a  collection  of  programs that aim to provide high quality fulltext search. indexer fetches all documents from the configured
       sources and creates the index data files.

       This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.  Instead, it	has  docu-
       mentation in HTML format, see below.

OPTIONS

       These  programs	follow	the  usual  GNU  command  line	syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-').  A summary of options is
       included below.	For a complete description, see the HTML documentation.

       --config  Specify an alternate configuration file to use.

       --all	 Causes indexer to (re-)index all indexes, instead of the specified ones.

       --quiet	 Suppress all non-error output.

       --noprogress
		 Suppress progress information.

       -h	    --help
		 Show summary of options.

       --rotate  Writes index data files as INDEX.new files and sends a SIGHUP to searchd, causing it to rotate the index files.

SEE ALSO

       search (1), searchd (1).

       Sphinx and it's programs are documented fully by the Spinx reference manual available in /usr/share/doc/sphinxsearch.
