Steps when a new (undergrad) course is created. 

eg new course: CSC373

Step 1:  Get the course name & number according to the calendar 

 Go to http://www.artsandscience.utoronto.ca/ofr/calendar/crs_csc.htm 
 (or wherever Arts&Sci lists CSC courses) to get the name of the 
 course. 

=>  CSC373H1 Algorithm Design & Analysis 

Step 2:  Update selection list in courseupdate cgi form 

 Connect via ssh client (eg. PuTTY) to  www.cs.toronto.edu
 cd to /export/www/http/cgi-bin/ and edit courseupdate

=>  christie.cs% cd /export/www/http/cgi-bin/
=>  christie.cs% pico -wz courseupdate

 Add the array entry between single quotes, don't forget the comma
 as it's part of a list  

=>   'CSC373H  Algorithm Design & Analysis'  ,

 Save & check http://www.cs.toronto.edu/cgi-bin/courseupdate to 
 make sure it works. (You can provide the new url if known)

Step 3:  Edit /cs/htdocs/DCS/Undergrad/Courses/current.html 

 Working on live copy (eg pico -wz /cs/htdocs/DCS/Undergrad/Courses/current.html )
 or view & Save As.. and use a Windows editor. 

 Use http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~csc373h as the url for the new course. 

=>   <LI> <A HREF="http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~csc373h">CSC 373h</A>
=>          Algorithm Design & Analysis</LI>
 
 Check in changes with rcs at a unix prompt. 

=> qew.cs% ci /cs/htdocs/DCS/Undergrad/Courses/current.html

 View page http://www.cs.toronto.edu/DCS/Undergrad/Courses/current.html

Step 4:  Create the redirect 

 The new urls deposited through http://www.cs.toronto.edu/cgi-bin/courseupdate
 are mailed to www@cs regularly. 

 Edit the file that controls the redirects:

=> qew.cs% pico -wz /cs/htuser/.htaccess

 Redirect /~csc373h http://www.cs.utoronto.ca/~fpitt/20051/CSC373/
