How to Personalize the Created Web Page

The webpage is created from three template files: a head (contains more than just the html head section): head.html, a body element: body_el.html, and a tail: tail.html. The head & tail are used once, and the body element is repeated for each comic strip. The files are installed by default under /usr/lib/netcomics/html_tmpl/.

Since you are allowed to specify a different directory to contain these files with the -m option, if you do use that option, you must create 3 files with the names: head.html, body_el.html and tail.html, or the webpage will not be created when using the -w or -W options. I suggest copying the template files and modifying them instead of starting from scratch.

What's replaced in the template files when writing out index.html
