[m-dev.] for review: generate index files on web site

[David Glen JEFFERY]

Hi,

For Tyson to review:


===================================================================

Estimated hours taken: 2.5

Seeing that the departmental www server no longer generates indexes for
directories without an index.html (or whatever), generate suitable index 
files for the directories in download/files/

bin/install_webpages:
	Call the new script to generate the index files.
bin/generate_index_html:
	New file that generates index files for a directory and all its
	sub-directories.
