## Developer note
To use the scripts on a server other than Ivan's, you need to do two things.
First, the server needs to be modified to serve setup/index.txt and
update/index.txt the same way they would serve index.html. How you do that is
beyond the scope of this repository for the moment. Secondly, you'll want to
set the shell variable A2SERVER_SCRIPT_URL to the base URL of this repository
To use the scripts on a server other than Ivan's, you'll want to export
the shell variable A2SERVER_SCRIPT_URL to the base URL of this repository
on your server. The base-URL should be slash-terminated. You can then run
the following snippet:
```bash
wget a2server-setup ${A2SERVER_SCRIPT_URL}setup/; source a2server-setup
wget -O a2server-setup ${A2SERVER_SCRIPT_URL}setup/index.txt; source a2server-setup
```
A simple method installing from a local folder is to change to that sudirectory
and run the following. Then export A2SERVER_SCRIPT_URL to "http://localhost:8000/"
```bash
python -m SimpleHTTPServer
```
You should probably export A2SERVER_SCRIPT_URL in your .bashrc or whatever
