[Maxima-discuss] MHonArc (was: Maxima mailing list archive at U. Porto?)

[Eduardo O. <edu...@gm...>]

Hi El Observatorio, Robert, and others...

This is a sort of a follow-up to this thread, titled
"Maxima mailing list archive at U. Porto?"...
https://sourceforge.net/p/maxima/mailman/message/58846901/

If we run this,


--snip--snip--
# rm -Rfv /tmp/Maxima-References/
cd      /tmp/
git clone https://github.com/Observatorio-de-Matematica/Maxima-References
cd      /tmp/Maxima-References/

# (find-file "/tmp/Maxima-References/")
# (find-file "/tmp/Maxima-References/mailing_list_2000-2016/")
# (find-file "/tmp/Maxima-mhonarc/")

rm -Rfv /tmp/Maxima-mhonarc/
mkdir   /tmp/Maxima-mhonarc/
cd      /tmp/Maxima-mhonarc/

mboxfile () { echo /tmp/Maxima-References/mailing_list_2000-2016/${1}.txt; }
mboxexpand () {
  mkdir -p $i
  mhonarc -outdir $1 -idxfname index.html $(mboxfile $1)
}
# for i in $(seq 2000 2016); do mboxexpand $i; done
  for i in $(seq 2000 2002); do mboxexpand $i; done

# Now open these URLs in a browser:
#   file:////tmp/Maxima-mhonarc/2001/index.html
#   file:////tmp/Maxima-mhonarc/2001/threads.html
# I don't like the format of the index.html - compare it with:
#   https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-emacs/2024-12/index.html
#   https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-emacs/2024-12/threads.html

...we get an archive of old messages that we can browse locally.
The "threads.html"s are ok, but I don't like the "index.html"s.
Anyone knows how to make MHonArc generate better "index.html"s?

  Cheers, thanks in advance, etc...
