Hi Rick, Try to edit the macros first, because the library is a comiled c++ executable, which requires programming experience to modify. The library executable file is compiled (or created) from c++ source code in the greenstone/src/recpt directory. To modify the library executable you would edit the c++ code in the recpt directory mentioned, and then recompile the executable from there. What would you like to change? Search for what you would like to change in the greenstone/macros directory. Greenstone allows many things to be changed through macros without resorting to changing the source code. For more information about macros see: http://greenstone.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Tutorial_exercises#Customization:_macro_files_and_stylesheets Additionally, there is a lot of other information in the wiki if you have a search around: http://greenstone.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/GreenstoneWiki Try searching for customization. Hope this helps, Richard. -- DL Consulting Greenstone Digital Library and Digitisation Specialists contact@dlconsulting.com www.dlconsulting.com Neal, Rick wrote: Greetings, Does anyone know what you could use to edit the Library executable file with?
