Publish qualifiers

Qualifiers tell WebPublish how to select files for publication. Qualifiers are simply WebPublish DATA options that contain information that can be used to select files. If qualifiers are included on the command line then WebPublish will use the specified qualifiers to select the individual files for publication. If no qualifiers are included on the command line then everything will be selected.

The legal qualifiers that can be used with the -publish command are: -e or -extension, -d or -directory, and -D or -depth. The --extension qualifier will tell WebPublish to select files with a specified file extension. The --directory qualifier will tell WebPublish the directory to begin publishing. The --depth qualifier tells WebPublish how many directory levels to traverse. Qualifiers can be used individually or in combination.
