Using web_highlights

When a research highlight is added, the web_highlights command generates a unique ID for it based on a timestamp and your CRSid. This is then used to refer to it for later modification and deletion operations.

Although web_highlights copies the files it uses, you are strongly advised to keep the originals (in case of accidents!)

-l (list)

List your highlights, including their IDs

$ web_highlights -l
200216HGM_mjr19 (excluded from index)
    A short, engaging, title
200216HGY_mjr19
    Understanding the growth of silicon carbide crystals

-n (new)

Add a new research highlight, generating a new ID and adding it to the index

$ web_highlights -n fragment.html

or

$ web_highlights -n --noindex fragment.html

The same, but exclude from index

If the research is a little elderly, rather than newly published, please specify the publication date with:

$ web_highlights -n --date YYMMDD fragment.html

This ensures that the index page remains approximately chronological. Dates between 100101 (1st Jan 2010) and today are accepted.

-c (change)

Change an existing highlight, specified by ID.

  $ web_highlights [--index|--noindex] -c ID

Simply change the index status, and regenerate index page.

  $ web_highlights [--index|--noindex] -c ID fragment.html

Simply change text and image, and regenerate index page.

-d (delete)

  $ web_highlights -d ID

Delete highlight, and regenerate index page.
