Where Can I Create a Text File?

hough you can put an HT file anywhere under the server root, it won't appear on the web unless there's a friendly Python script willing to display it. Since most of the site is drawn from the database, most of the existing Python scripts will not automatically display a new HT file.

Fortunately, there is one Python script that will display your HT file, if it's under /info. If you create a file info/services/uptime_log.ht (note on filename convention), it will automatically appear at URL http://www.cs.uchicago.edu/info/services/uptime_log. Note that the filename components are the same, but the URL does not include the .ht suffix.
