WebCScope Installation

Quick Install

0. Create a directory called cscope under your /cgi-bin (virtual) directory.
        Copy all the files in the distribution to this directory.

1. Edit the 'cscope' file and change the following items:
        - Location to the perl interpreter
        - Location of the cscope database and other modifiable parameters
        - Feedback name and email
        - Location of the syntax highlighter, if you wish to use it

2. Syntax highlighter
        - The syntax highlighter must be built if you decide to use it.  If you
                do not want syntax highlighting, you can ignore this step and set the
                highlighter to /bin/cat.
        - Compile 'hilite.c' using 'gcc -o hilite hilite.c'

3. Icons
        - Copy the images from the icons directory into the /icons (virtual)
                directory on the web server.  You can also replace these images with
                whatever you choose.

4. Organizing your CScope databases
        - WebCScope supports multiple databases in $cscopedir
        - Create a directory for each project or sub-source in $cscopedir and, 
                generate your cscope database using the following commands.
                - find /some/source/dir -name '*.[chyls]' -print > cscope.files
                - cscope -b -q
        - Repeat the above step for each database you wish to create
