| +                sed 's,/doc/viewports/,/share/viewports/,g' $$A \

| +             done
| +\end{verbatim}

| +In the long term, the [[.pht]] and viewports should be generated at either
| +build time or installation time using commands like:
| +\begin{verbatim}
| +             rm -f ht.db
| +             ${HTADD} *.ht
| +             for A in `ls *.ht`; do ${SMAN} -paste $$a ; done
| +             rm -f ht.db
| +             ${HTADD} *.ht *.pht
| +\end{verbatim}

Great!
