Hi,
I found grep to be a good digging tool, "man grep" will tell you how to use it.

It will produce the following starting point:

http://www.minivend.com/minivend/tags/01.11._data_.html

and this section from minivend.html, which came with your distribution:

Session parameters
Things like where the user originally found your catalog ([data session
source] and [data session referer]), domain they are from ([data session
host]), the time of their last access ([data session time]), and many other
parameters.

(It's in the section "OVERVIEW OF MINIVEND", subsection "The Vend Concept")


Are you sure you were digging through the minivend manual?

cheers, Frank
