+ <h4>Introduction</h4>
+
+ The DXSpider system is designed to be extensible, to facilitate experimentation and
+ self-training in both Amateur Radio and Programming.
+
+ <p>Having said all of that it is also designed so that it should be relatively easy to solve
+ some real world problems that we have in the DX Cluster network as well as allow the implementation
+ and testing of new protocols relatively safely.
+
+ <h4>What is it?</h4>
+
+ The mechanism I have chosen to allow people to do their own thing, is a perl <tt>.pm</tt> file called
+ <b>Local.pm</b>. It is simply a perl package with its own address space, which has a number of defined
+ subroutines called from certain places in the daemon code. I have provided a "blank" version for you
+ to modify.
+
+ <h4>Where is it?</h4>
+
+ The template is <b>/spider/perl/Local.pm</b>. This file should be
+ copied into <b>/spider/local</b> and then modified to your taste.
+
+ <p>At the moment, the template's format and standard functions are
+ not really finalised, but I won't take away the functions that are
+ currently there and I won't rename them. I reserve the right to
+ add to them!
+
+ <p>As and when I get a clearer idea of what people might wish to do with
+ it and how, I will add to the documentation on this page. So for now:
+ this is it!
