PouëtCochon - demo downloader/organizer/viewer tool for Firefox
category: general [glöplog]
So I did a bit of skunkworking this weekend and implemented a project I've been wondering about for a long time. Hopefully this'll make watching the actual demos interesting again.
I an I present to you http://pouetcochon.googlecode.com/files/pouetcochon-1.0.xpi, a Firefox plugin to download, organize and watch demos.
Here's how it works
Step 1: You install the plugin and visit a prod page - you get a new link:
Step 2: You click the link, and the demo starts downloading - the target path is generated from the demo's metadata, like party or group name.
Step 3: The downloaded demo is (optionally) extracted to it's own folder:
Step 4: The extracted demo is ran for your pleasure \o/
Project plans
None. Stuff's open source (obviously) and here's a Google code project for it as well. Feel free to offer your services to fix stuff or add new features because I won't. I spent all the time I wanted on it, and I'm not exactly a fan of Javascript OR XUL.
Enjoy!

Oh and if you wanna contribute or take the project over, gargaj@conspiracy.hu is the place to send the mail.
You are cool, sir.
Oh yeah, you can configure stuff like paths here:
And I've been told it works on Mac too.

What p01 said. Now, someone port it to Opera.
kudos!
Code:
var snort = [
"*oink*", // en
"*röff*", // hu
"*groin*", // fr
"*grunz*", // de
"*grunz*", // de
"*röh*", // fi
"*øf*", // dk
Hrhr. Nice touch. ;)
xernobyl: What Gargaj said.
As for porting it to Opera, we're out of luck for now wrt WRITE file access.

very cool idea!
is it even possible to do this under chrome? can chrome do zip unpacking / process execution natively?
Doesn't have to be native. There are zip/unzip libs in JS.
how about file write access?
