-====== Simple data sharing ======
+====== Simple online sharing ======
+===== Share data online =====
 For simple data sharing, use the script **/projects/NS2345K/tools/wwwpublish**:
 <file>
+Usage:
+   wwwpublish <absolute path to data directory> <dataset name>
+   or
+   wwwpublish <absolute path to data file> <dataset name>
+Example:
+   wwwpublish /projects/NS2345K/noresm/thredds/CORE2/AMOC CORE2-AMOC
+   or
+   wwwpublish /projects/NS2345K/noresm/noresm2cmor.tbz noresm2cmor
+Purpose:
+   Publish data online at http://ns2345k.norstore.uio.no
+Description:
+   The input path must be absolute and start with /projects/NS2345K or
+   /norstore_osl/projects/NS2345K.
+   Only regular files are considered. Symbolic links are skipped.
+   All date files must have unique names as the folder stucture is
+   flattened during publication.
+   Reading permissions of the data files have to be open to everyone.
+   However, reading permissions of the folders containing the files
+   can be closed.
+   <dataset name> should be one word and not contain any special
+   characters other than "-" and "_".
 </file>
+The script provides following:
+  *local path to a folder that contains hard-links to the data files
+  *URL that points to the online-catalogue where the shared files are exposed
+  *download-URL to a wget-script that can be used to download the entire dataset (note that execution permissions have to be changed prior to running the script)
+NOTE: The sharing method uses hard-links. This has the advantages that no additional disk space is used and that the sharing happens instantaneous. A removal of the hard-links will unshare the data, but will not affect the original files.
+===== Unshare data =====
 If you don't want to share a dataset anymore, use the script **/projects/NS2345K/tools/wwwunpublish**:
+<file>
+Usage: wwwunpublish <dataset name>
+Example: wwwunpublish CORE2-AMOC
+Purpose: Unpublish a dataset from NorStore's www-server
+</file>
+NOTE: Unsharing data will not affect the original data.
