-    <title>Introduction </title>
-    <p>WebTool provides an easy and efficient way to implement web
-      based tools with Erlang/OTP. WebTool configures and starts the
-      webserver and the various web based tools.</p>
-    <p>All tools that shall run under WebTool must have a *.tool
-      file in the code path or in its priv directory. When WebTool
-      starts it searches the code path for such files. For each
-      <c>ebin</c> directory in the path, the <c>priv</c> directory is
-      also searched. The *.tool files contain the configuration data
-      for each web based tool.</p>
-  </section>

-  <section>
-    <title>Starting WebTool</title>
-    <p>Start WebTool by calling the function <c>webtool:start/0</c> or
-      <c>webtool:start/2</c>.  If <c>webtool:start/0</c> is used the
-      start page of WebTool is available at
-      <em>http://localhost:8888/</em> or
-      <em>http://127.0.0.1:8888/</em>, and the directory containing
-      the root directory for the webserver, is assumed to be
-      <c><![CDATA[webtool-<vsn>/priv]]></c>.</p>
-    <p>Use <c>webtool:start/2</c> if the default path for the root
-      directory, port, ip-number or server name can not be used. See
-      the Reference Manual for <seealso marker="webtool">webtool</seealso> for more information.</p>
-    <p>WebTool, with the default configuration as in <c>start/0</c>,
-      can also be started with the <c>start_webtool</c> script which
-      is available in the <c>priv</c> directory of the WebTool
-      application. See the Reference Manual for <seealso marker="start_webtool">start_webtool</seealso> for further
-      information about this script. For Windows users, the batch file
-      <c>start_webtool.bat</c> can be used for the same purpose.</p>

-  <section>
-    <title>Using WebTool</title>
-    <p>Start WebTool and point the browser to the corresponding URL. 
-      At the top of the page there is a frame with a link named 
-      <em>WebTool</em>. Click that link and a page where it is
-      possible to start the available tools will appear in the main
-      frame.</p>
-  </section>
-
-  <section>
-    <title>Start a web based tool</title>
-    <p>Click on the link labeled <em>WebTool</em> in the topmost  frame,
-      select the checkbox for each tool to start and
-      click on the button labeled <em>Start</em>. A link to each tool
-      that WebTool succeeded to start will appear in the topmost frame.</p>
-  </section>
-
-  <section>
-    <title>Stop a web based tool</title>
-    <p>Click on the link labeled <em>WebTool</em> in the topmost
-      frame. Select <em>Stop Tools</em> in the left frame. Select the
-      checkbox for each tool to stop and click on the button labeled
-      <em>Stop</em>.</p>

-    <title>Develop new web based tools</title>
-    <p>WebTool can be used as a framework when developing new web based
-      tools.</p>
-    <p>A web based tool running under WebTool will typically consist of
-      three parts.</p>
-    <list type="bulleted">
-      <item>A *.tool file which defines how WebTool can find the tool's
-       configuration data</item>
-      <item>The Erlang code generating the web interface to the tool (HTML
-       code)</item>
-      <item>The tool itself.</item>
-    </list>
-    <p>In most cases it is a good idea to separate the code for
-      creation of the html-pages and the code for the logic. This
-      increases the readability of the code and the logic might be
-      possible to reuse.</p>
-
-    <section>
-      <title>The *.tool file</title>
-      <p>When WebTool starts it searches the current path for
-        <c>*.tool</c> files to find all available tools. The *.tool
-        file contains a version identifier and a list of tuples which
-        is the configuration data. The version identifier specifies
-        the *.tool file version, i.e. not the version of
-        webtool. Currently the only valid version is "1.2" and the
-        only valid configuration tag is
-        <c>config_func</c>. <c>config_func</c> specifies which
-        function WebTool must call to get further configuration data
-        for the tool. This means that a *.tool file generally must
-        look like this:</p>
-      <code type="none">
-   {version,"1.2"}.
-   [{config_func,{Module,Function,Arguments}}].      </code>
-      <p><c>Module</c> is the name of the module where the callback
-        function is defined. <c>Function</c> is the name of the
-        callback function, and <c>Arguments</c> is the list of
-        arguments to the callback function.</p>
-    </section>
-
-    <section>
-      <title>The configuration function</title>
-      <p>The *.tool file points out a configuration function. This
-        function must return a list of configuration parameters (see
-        the Reference Manual for <seealso marker="webtool">webtool</seealso>).</p>
-      <p>The <c>web_data</c> parameter is mandatory and it specifies
-        the name of the tool and the link to the tool's start
-        page. All other parameters are optional.</p>
-      <p>If the tool requires any processes to run, the <c>start</c>
-        parameter specifies the function that WebTool must call in
-        order to start the process(es).</p>
-      <p>The <c>alias</c> parameters are passed directly on to the
-        webserver (INETS). The webserver has three ways to create
-        dynamic web pages CGI, Eval Scheme and Erl Scheme. All tools
-        running under WebTool must use Erl Scheme.</p>
-      <p>Erl Scheme tries to resemble plain CGI. The big difference is
-        that Erl Scheme can only execute Erlang code. The code will
-        furthermore be executed on the same instance as the webserver.</p>
-      <p>An URL which calls an Erlang function with Erl Scheme can have
-        the following syntax:</p>
-      <code type="none"><![CDATA[
-http://Servername:Port/ErlScriptAlias/Mod/Func<?QueryString>      ]]></code>
-      <p>An <c>alias</c> parameter in the configuration function can be
-        an ErlScriptAlias as used in the above URL. The definition of
-        an ErlScriptAlias shall be like this:</p>
-      <p><c>{alias,{erl_alias,Path,[Modules]}}</c>, e.g.</p>
-      <p><c>{alias,{erl_alias,"/testtool",[helloworld]}}</c></p>
-      <p>The following URL will then cause a call to the function
-        helloworld:helloworld/2 (if WebTool is started with default
-        settings i.e. servername "localhost" and port 8888):</p>
-      <p><c>http://localhost:8888/testtool/helloworld/helloworld</c></p>
-      <p>Note that the module <c>helloworld</c> must be in the code
-        path of the node running WebTool.</p>
-      <p>Functions that are called via the Erl Scheme must take two 
-        arguments, <c>Environment</c> and <c>Input</c>. 
-        </p>
-      <list type="bulleted">
-        <item><c>Environment</c> is a list of key/value tuples.</item>
-        <item><c>Input</c> is the part of the URL after the "?", i.e. the
-         part of the URL containing name-value pairs. If the page was
-         called with the URL:
-                <br></br>
-<c><![CDATA[http://localhost:8888/testtool/helloworld/helloworld?input1=one&amp;input2=two]]></c>        <br></br>
-<c>Input</c> will be the string
-        <c><![CDATA["input1=one&amp;input2=two"]]></c>.  In the module
-        <c>httpd</c> in the INETS application there is a function
-        <c>parse_query</c> which will parse such a string and return
-         a list of key-value tuples.</item>
-      </list>
-      <p>An <c>alias</c> parameter in the configuration function can
-        also be a normal path alias. This can e.g. be used to point
-        out a directory where HTML files are stored. The following
-        definition states that the URL
-        <c>http://localhost:8888/mytool_home/</c> really points to the
-        directory <c>/usr/local/otp/lib/myapp-1.0/priv</c>:</p>
-      <p><c>{alias,{"/mytool_home","/usr/local/otp/lib/myapp-1.0/priv"}}</c></p>
-      <p>See the INETS documentation, especially the module
-        <c>mod_esi</c>, for a more in depth coverage of the Erl Scheme.</p>

-      <title>A small example</title>
-      <p>A Hello World example that uses Erl Scheme would look like
-        this. Note that this example does not have a process running
-        and thus does not need a <c>start</c> parameter in the
-        configuration function.
-        </p>
-      <p><em>helloworld.erl:</em></p>
-      <pre>
-        -module(helloworld).
-        -export([config_data/0]).
-        -export([helloworld/2]).
-        
-        config_data()->
-            {testtool,
-             [{web_data,{"TestTool","/testtool/helloworld/helloworld"}},
-              {alias,{erl_alias,"/testtool",[helloworld]}}]}.
-        
-        helloworld(_Env,_Input)-&gt;
-            [header(),html_header(),helloworld_body(),html_end()].
-
-        header() -&gt;
-            header("text/html").
-
-        header(MimeType) -&gt;
-            "Content-type: " ++ MimeType ++ "\r\n\r\n".
-
-        html_header() -&gt;    
-            "&lt;HTML&gt;
-               &lt;HEAD&gt;
-                  &lt;TITLE&gt;Hello world Example &lt;/TITLE&gt;
-               &lt;/HEAD&gt;\n".
-
-        helloworld_body()-&gt;
-            "&lt;BODY&gt;Hello World&lt;/BODY&gt;".
-
-        html_end()-&gt;
-            "&lt;/HTML&gt;".
-      </pre>
-      <p>To use this example with WebTool a *.tool file must be created
-        and added to a directory in the current path, e.g. the same
-        directory as the compiled <c>helloworld.beam</c>.</p>
-      <p><em>testtool.tool:</em></p>
-      <code type="none">
-        {version,"1.2"}.
-        [{config_func, {helloworld,config_data,[]}}].
-      </code>
-      <p>When <c>helloworld.erl</c> is compiled, start WebTool by
-        calling the function <c>webtool:start()</c> and point your
-        browser to <em>http://localhost:8888/</em>. Select WebTool in
-        the topmost frame and start TestTool from the web page.  Click
-        on the link labeled <em>TestTool</em> in the topmost frame.</p>
