[thelist] custom directory index, aliases

[Sam-I-Am]

wondering if anyone understood the question? 

I found Randal Schwartz's script but that too assumed the current
directory is under the web root.

Well I currently only have 2 aliased directories so it wouldn't hurt too
much to maintain seperate scripts for each, with the path hard-coded,
but I'd love to know another way. 

thanks
Sam
