- Made some changes to the download logic, it should now pass more gracefully on errors. - Extra options for suck can be now specified like other cfg values by bowser or pcfg - Fixed suckkillfile support - again. :) suckkillfile can be specified now by bowser or pcfg. - Increased the maximum filename length to 255 - Files can now be tagged with keywords using command 'pkw' - Script 'pv_key keyword1 keyword2 ...' can be used to view the files that match ALL the given keys - Added a new command 'pleechwww' to download image galleries from the web. It works by taking as input an url, keywords to match (as regexp) and a destination area. The page the url points to is assumed to contain links to image galleries, and that the link description includes the keyword if its to be leeched. All the words in the link desc ('bob sent images of these lovely bananas') will be added as keywords for the received files in the database (i.e. you can do e.g. 'pv_key bob bananas' to see the files). Browsed links will be marked up in the database and won't be rebrowsed on further runs of pleechwww. For WWW leeching, the standard pimppa md5sum checks etc apply. The fetched files will be renamed according to the link description (since the web-gallery images are usually named just "01.jpg" etc ...). WWW leech requires wget to be installed, and is not supported by the GUI bowser. - Misc small code changes and cleanups CHANGE: bash> mysql -u root -p < sql/058to060.sql
