May I contribute an enhanced mod_dir.c to Apache?
Not ack'd - if someone working on mod_dir stuff could get back to him, I
would greatly appreciate it.
Now that we have mod_autoindex stuff separate, I see no reason not to flesh
it out. I still really want to see Dean's idea of being able to sort the
columns, too...

>Hello. Hope I don't disturb you too much.
>Since I wanted to let people walk through my ftp site via http in a

>on/off various parts (title, headings, <HTML><BODY> tags, README
>inclusion...) of a dir listing, to customise the language (try to say

>for any local dir URI inside a HTML page, through a sub_request mechanism
>which (provided that Indexes is on for the dir) even by-passes an index.html
>to get you to the dir listing.
