Package: WebPublish

Description:
WebPublish can be used to manage all of the details that are associated with 
publishing a local copy of a website to one or more remote servers using File 
Transfer Protocol (FTP). Using WebPublish to manage the transfer of a website 
to one or more servers allows the website developer to concentrate on a 
website\'s content.

The general way to use WebPublish is to create a website in your
own local directory. Add, modify, and remove files and directories in the local 
copy of the website. After changes have been made to the local copy of the 
website, invoke WebPublish to transfer the changes that you made to a remote 
server.

WebPublish will know when files and directories have been added or
changed in the local copy of a website. WebPublish will only transfer the files 
and diretories that have been added or changed in the local copy of a website 
to a server. WebPublish also provides a feature that allows you to exclude 
files and directories from being transferred to a server (e.g., a template 
directory or a project file).

WebPublish will know when files and directories on the server are no
longer a part of a local copy of a website. WebPublish can be used to remove 
only the files and directories from the server that are no longer a part of the 
local copy of a website. WebPublish can also exclude files and directories from 
being removed from a server (e.g. cgi-bin).

Finally, a special feature of WebPublish allows you to have a
shell program called each time that a file with a specific extension is about 
to be transferred to a remote server. This makes it easy to write a script or a 
program that can make alterations to a file just before it is transferred.

WebPublish already exists and you can download the latest distribution at
