How to create Arachne Packages (.APM) ------------------------------------- An APM file is simply a normal ARJ archive. It is handled by freeware UNARJ.EXE included in Arachne package. It will be unpacked to the Arachne directory. It is a good idea to place more complex upgrades to separate directories. An APM package can contain any Arachne plug-in, DGI script, or patch, for example, a multimedia player, different font set, or simply just an APM.ID file with a list of changes to the Arachne configuration files. The only rule is that an APM package must contain a file called APM.ID with the following structure: ---cut--- [arachne-package] [APMicon=URL of package icon (eg. file:ZIP.IKN) - must be on first line!] Name=name of the package License=freeware,shareware, commercial, public domain ... GNU, copyright .. Description=some information about this package [Description=....more lines] [Mime=valid MIME.CFG line (MIME type will be replaced or added)] [Mime=...] [Icon=valid WWWMAN.CFG line] [Icon=...] [Config=valid ARACHNE.CFG line] [Config=...] [Overwrite=name of package which is overwritten/deactivated (without .APM!) [Overwrite=...] ---cut--- You can use HTML tags in the Name, License, and Description variables.
