This is restricted to LDEO only Directories
Directories can be read, too, and are
mapped to Ingrid datasets. netCDF, CDF and HDF files are defined so
that they are read as datasets, .html files are displayed, and
extension-less files are interpreted as Ingrid code. index.html is
displayed instead of the standard dataset page if it exists. This
behaviour means that Ingrid can be used to serve http directories with
special behavior on data files.
New Definitions
Files of new definitions can be created and read. In particular,
index.tex is read if it exists when a directory is read.
New "Live" Pages
.html files are displayed unaltered, except that anything between
<INGRID> and </INGRID> tags is replaced by the output of whatever
INGRID code is there.
Data from forms is delivered in an object (PostScript dictionary)
which also contains definitions to help process the information.
