That's a start and I know more than I did a minute ago.

When I look into a apache log files, I use pair.com as a host, I see the robots doing calls as I describe 

/somedirectory/?C=[S M L D];O=[A D] 

Where the letters after the = signs have no meaning to me. If I experiment with a browser with the same type of URL ending in a directory I get replies that make sense but I am curious about the exact options available. It does look as though I can get more than just modification times and sizes for files in the directory and I'd like to use that information. It appears that an index.html file, if present, takes precedence but I'd like to be sure.
