GeneWeb inserts the content of file hed.txt at the beginning of a page, and the content of file trl.txt folowwed by copyrights copyr.txt at the end.

hed.txt and trl.txt can be personalized at the base level. The file copyr.txt is unique for a server.

GeneWeb will scan the following folders to locate hed and trl:

bdir/etc/base/
bdir/etc/
gw/etc/

where bdir is the value of the -bd parameter at the start of gwd and gw is the folder in which sits gwd.

The copyright file is found in the last folder
