+mod_autoindex_mb is a patched mod_autoindex. It adds a little further
+capability as index option.
+
+The provided mod_autoindex.c.patch shows the differences to the original module.
+This patch is *not* meant to be applied to mod_autoindex in the httpd source tree.
+It merely serves to illustrate in which way mod_autoindex_mb differs from
+mod_autoindex.
+
+Only one module can be loaded at a time - either mod_autoindex or mod_autoindex_mb.
+The two modules can not usefully run side by side, because they share the same 
+configuration directives.
+The module name differs, so that it can be explicit which module is loaded.
+
+
+The module can be compiled like this:
 apxs2 -c '-Wc,-Wall -g -D_GNU_SOURCE' mod_autoindex_mb.c
+
+(I can't remember why I needed the _GNU_SOURCE. It was on Linux and was probably
+related to filesystem access. The module should work on any platform, of course.)

 This patch is not meant to be applied to mod_autoindex in the httpd source tree.
 It is meant to illustrate in what way mod_autoindex_mb differs from mod_autoindex.
-The two modules can run side by side.
-Hence the differing module name.

+Only one module can be loaded at a time - either mod_autoindex or mod_autoindex_mb.

+
+(It would not be straightforward to change mod_autoindex_mb as much as to allow
+installing it side-by-side).
