<text class="norm">
A directory may be mapped on to a particular skin, so all documents
within that directory take on a particular appearance. If a skin exists
in the skin/dir with the same name as the document directory, it will
automatically be used for each of the documents in that directory,
(except where a document specifies the use of another skin, in the
skin/doc directory).

3. Homepages
</text>
</object>
<object id="49">
<ocn>49</ocn>
<text class="norm">
<b>SiSU</b> is about the ability to auto-generate documents. Home pages
are regarded as custom built items, and are not created by <b>SiSU</b>.
More accurately, <b>SiSU</b> has a default home page, which will not be
appropriate for use with other sites, and the means to provide your own
home page instead in one of two ways as part of a site's configuration,
these being:
</text>
</object>
<object id="50">
<ocn>50</ocn>
<text class="norm">
1. through placing your home page and other custom built documents in
the subdirectory _sisu/home/ (this probably being the easier and more
convenient option)
</text>
</object>
<object id="51">
<ocn>51</ocn>
<text class="norm">
2. through providing what you want as the home page in a skin,
</text>
</object>
<object id="52">
<ocn>52</ocn>
<text class="norm">
Document sets are contained in directories, usually organised by site
or subject. Each directory can/should have its own homepage. See the
section on directory structure and organisation of content.

<text class="h5">
3.1 Home page and other custom built pages in a sub-directory
</text>
</object>
<object id="54">
<ocn>54</ocn>
<text class="norm">
Custom built pages, including the home page index.html may be placed
within the configuration directory _sisu/home/ in any of the locations
that is searched for the configuration directory, namely ./_sisu;
~/_sisu; /etc/sisu From there they are copied to the root of the
output directory with the command:

<text class="h5">
3.2 Home page within a skin
</text>
</object>
<object id="57">
<ocn>57</ocn>
<text class="norm">
Skins are described in a separate section, but basically are a file
written in the programming language <b>Ruby</b> that may be provided to
change the defaults that are provided with sisu with respect to
individual documents, a directories contents or for a site.
</text>
</object>
<object id="58">
<ocn>58</ocn>
<text class="norm">
If you wish to provide a homepage within a skin the skin should be in
the directory _sisu/skin/dir and have the name of the directory for
which it is to become the home page. Documents in the directory
commercial_law would have the homepage modified in skin_commercial
law.rb; or the directory poems in skin_poems.rb
