NAME
       htags-server - start a private Web/CGI server for hyper-text

SYNOPSIS
       htags-server [-b ip-address][-u language][port]

DESCRIPTION
       Htags-server  is	 a private Web/CGI server for the hyper-text generated

       In advance of using this command, you should  execute  htags(1).	  Then
       you can execute htags-server at the same place.	You can start browsing
       at 'http://localhost:8000/' by default.	To stop the server, just press
       on 'CTRL-C'.

       Python  2/3  or	Ruby  equipped	with WEBrick is required.  By default,
       htags-server looks for python first, if not found then looks for ruby.

       security.
