Description:
Project: Emarks
My program installs an online bookmark server on a linux/GNU/unix platform.

The aim is that you can save and manage your bookmarks from any internet 
browser. You connect to your server running the emarks cgi-scripts and you can 
save and manage your online bookmarks.

Some of these online bookmark servers already exist, but the projects are often 
extremely problematic to install and run on the web-clients.

Emarks however is a very simple cgi-bin script written in bash and awk. It is 
easy to install and easy to use. It comes with documentation for how to intall 
and use.
The advantages are that you can install it such that many users can save and 
manage their bookmarks on one server. New users can sign themselves up, 
although this option might be disabled by the administrator. Signups can be set 
to specific IPs. So for example, a system administrator can make sure that only 
certain people can sign up for the online bookmarks.


It already exists and you can download the latest distribution at 

ftp://eye-hand.wust.edu/pub/emarks.tar.gz


Other Software Required:
bash (verion 2)
awk
