Peter messaged me and said
“pybaz is easy, I’ll send
you the script I wrote to crawl an archive.”
He was right, and amidst claims of slacking off from my boss, I hacked
up archie
:
jaq@spacepants.org--2004/archie--main--0
I couldn’t think of a better name;
Archie
is what they used to call the FTP search engines of antiquity.
Actually there was a commandline tool called veronica
IIRC, but
betty
was never used, so perhaps… naw.
Don’t expect it to do much atm, and it’s pretty slow :-) Punch in
your archive name in the box and twiddle your thumbs.
Update: It’s now called barry
, given that “baz” is clearly his
nickname. No relation to Sydney Swans star
forward
:-) Find him at:
