Is there a resource variable for the list name?
If there is, how do I incorporate into a href link in my resource file?
For example in my main index page I would like to have
<p><a href="http://brass.web.boeing.com/mailman/listinfo/listname";>Mailman
List Information</a>
The listname is the resource variable that I am looking for.
Since MHonArc can be given mail from anywhere to archive, it has
no internal concept of a "list name".
What you can do is define a custom resource variable(s) via the
DEFINEVAR resource to represent the list name you want.
Here is an example of how to do it via the command-line:
shell> mhonarc -definevar 'LIST-NAME=listname' ...
The command-line usage is handy if sharing a common resource file
among multiple list archives.
Resource file example:
<DefineVar chop>
LIST-NAME
listname
</DefineVar>
And then in a layout resource, you can use $LIST-NAME$ to represent
the list name.
You may also want to define another variable to represent the information
URL.

P.S. The mharc archiving system,
<http://www.mhonarc.org/release/mharc/tar/>, does something like the
above for the archives it manages.
