SYNOPSIS
dwww-index++ [-f] [-i] [-l] [-v] [-- swish_option [...]]
DESCRIPTION
dwww-index++ is part of the dwww package, which provides access to on-
line documentation on a Debian system via WWW.
dwww-index++ uses index++(1) program from swish++ package to generate
index of Debian documentation files registered with doc-base.

-f Force generation of the full documentation index even if it is
disabled in the configuration file.
-i Force generation of the incremental documentation index even if
it is disabled in the configuration file.
-l Print a list of files which would be indexed on standard output.
Can be used together with -f or -i to show files which would be
indexed by full or incremental indexing.

-- Any option after -- is passed directly to index++(1).
For example to see which files are indexed, use
dwww-index++ -- -v4
