Details

This web page runs a perl script which returns the requested file. The files for each of the packages are cached on disk, and the cached version is checked against the documentation source file (.tex file) to see if it needs updated. If it does need updating, it copies the files from the appropriate version area and runs the Makefile before returning the documentation. As the script is run from whatever web server you loaded the page from, it is important that those who write the documentation make sure the Makefile works on sol and duvall at least. If the Makefile doesn't work, then this web page doesn't work.
