Recently I have working on “mabishu-apache-autoindex”, a set of html, css, icons and image files designed to work together with the mod_autoindex module to make the default Apache file listings look a little nicer.  Try this screenshot demo and If you like it, grab the source files at my Github repository, now I’ll explain how to set it up.

Installation

First, get a copy of the “include” folder – the easiest way is to change to the document root of the domain you want to style, and check it out from git:

$ cd /var/www/YOUR.VHOST.LOCAL
$ git clone http://github.com/frandieguez/mabishu-apache-autoindex.git
