<h4>Introduction</h4>
The DXSpider system is designed to be extensible, to facilitate experimentation and
self-training in both Amateur Radio and Programming.
<p>Having said all of that it is also designed so that it should be relatively easy to solve
some real world problems that we have in the DX Cluster network as well as allow the implementation
and testing of new protocols relatively safely.
<h4>What is it?</h4>
The mechanism I have chosen to allow people to do their own thing, is a perl <tt>.pm</tt> file called
<b>Local.pm</b>. It is simply a perl package with its own address space, which has a number of defined
subroutines called from certain places in the daemon code. I have provided a "blank" version for you
to modify.
<h4>Where is it?</h4>
The template is <b>/spider/perl/Local.pm</b>. This file should be
copied into <b>/spider/local</b> and then modified to your taste.
<p>At the moment, the template's format and standard functions are
not really finalised, but I won't take away the functions that are
currently there and I won't rename them. I reserve the right to
add to them!
<p>As and when I get a clearer idea of what people might wish to do with
it and how, I will add to the documentation on this page. So for now:
this is it!
