4: \paragraph
5: On the ECHO server, the registration of new texts is implemented by
6: means of a cgi script, reg.cgi
7: (archimedes/web/cgi-bin/toc/admin/reg.cgi ). reg.cgi retrieves a
8: metadata file in MPIWG archive metadata format from the entered uri
9: (currently only local paths are supported ) and constructs from this
10: file a toc.cgi object file (see below) , which it writes to toc.cgi's
11: data section. [corpus???] It should be stressed that this is a
12: registration procedure developed for a particular implementation of
13: toc.cgi and not a part of the core application.
14:
15: \paragraph
16: reg.cgi takes two parameters, path and show. Path should give the
17: local path to the metadata file for the text that is being
18: registered. If ``show'' is set to 1, reg.cgi will return for
19: inspection the toc.cgi object file that it has built out of the
20: submitted metadata file.
21:
22: \paragraph{input metadata file}
23:
24: The input metadata file must have the following form
25:
26: \begin{verbatim}
27: <resource>

58: \paragraph{Overview of toc.cgi architecture}
59:
60: \subparagraph{}
61: toc.cgi is a perl script for displaying collections of xml texts and
62: linking them to related resources such as page-images, morphological
63: analysis, commentaries, dictionaries, etc. It implements generic methods
64: for resource-linking provided by a series of perl modules which are in
65: turn based mainly on generic open-source tools for xml manipulation and networking
66: written in C.
67:
68: \subparagraph{toc.cgi collections--Network transparency}
69: Each of the collections in toc.cgi is a ``virtual'' collection, that
70: is, a collection of links or uri's to resources that reside somewhere on an accessible
71: network, local or remote.
72:
73: \subparagraph{toc.cgi collections--remote resources}
74:
75: What is at the other end of the link is of no concern to toc.cgi, as
76: long as the resource referenced by the link meets minimal toc.cgi
77: requirements--how the resource is actually implemented and exposed is
78: a matter for the resource provider. The link may, for instance, point
79: directly to an xml text or it may point to a container which exposes a
80: particular xml view of an underlying resource that is perhaps not in
81: xml format at all.

146: /perseus/cvsroot/mpitexts/perl/perllib. To get them, log on to the
147: archimedes server and use the commandline command:
148: \begin{verbatim}
149: cvs -d /perseus/cvsroot co /perseus/cvsroot/mpitexts/perl/perllib
150: \end{verbatim}
151:
