Installation of The Horus Indexer

The Horus Indexer isn't a very complicated piece of software to install.
In fact there are only three things you need to be aware of/modify for the indexer to work.
Let me explain.

To begin with, unpack the .tar.gz file with:

$ tar -zxvf horus.tar.gz

You should now have a folder named 'horus/'. Now, the important stuff:

- conf/config.php
    
    - The only value that needs to be changed there in order for the software to work, 
      is $conf['basedir']. Change the default value to a path that points to the folder 
      you would like to view the contens of.

    - If $conf['rewrite'] is 0 (off), then you should be good to go. If you want URL-
      rewriting on, change the value to 1, and check the next point, the .htaccess file.

- .htaccess

    - Everything in this file is commented out as default. Should you set the value of 
      $conf['rewrite'] to 1 (on), remove all of the comments in the .htaccess file. And 
      remember to change the RewriteBase entry to something that is appropriate for your 
      system. Make sure Apache is able to read the .htaccess file as well.

After having done this, just upload the whole folder 'horus/' and the files/folder within it,
and voila, everything should be OK. :)

By the way, check the file .descript.ion in the root folder. :) Place that file in the folder 
you want to display. Check it out, and you'll see why.

Should you have any questions, bugreports, or would like to contribute to the project, visit
