EZPicspl
is a Perl clone of EZPics
which aims to offer cross-platform command-line EZPics functionality
with Perl. The original idea behind EZPics came when a fellow
named JesusSavesPorn noticed that porn series(amongts
other things) were almost always named sequentially. He proposed
an original EZCode, which was in fact not easy at all and horrendous
to look at. Since then people involved have come to a consensus
on the format. It is as follows:
http://www.domain.com/picture01?picture09?Rename
As might be obvious,
there are three important parts to the EZCode: the beginning
web address, then the beginning and ending filenames, and finally
the rename field. This last field was a good idea in that it
is used by EZPics programs as a name for a subdirectory for
the downloaded files. This way files are not overwritten in
the current directory. Some clones, like mine, try to expand
upon the original idea.
Me: I'm a student at
Rutgers University, and a faithful SomethingAwful
forum goon. I'm known as derMoerder both there and on the ever-elusive
DPPH. This was my first real exercise in Perl programming, and
it just seemed like a good idea since it would be something
that people would actually use, which would give me incentive.
With a personal distaste for VB, I felt there was a lacking
in the EZPics department that needed to be filled(and the want
for a multithreaded client was some incentive as well).
I welcome any email with
