Based on these arguments, it tries to set up the current working directory so that you only need to call B to mirror the webcomic you were pointing to. It does this by comparing the last two URLs to determine a correct regular expression for the comic images and comparing the first two to figure out the text on the "next" link. It then creates F and F so that you only need to call comirror(1) to start downloading. Unless all options (or B<--batch>) were specified on the commandline, B will interactively ask the user for further options. =head1 OPTIONS =over =item B<--batch> Do not ask questions interactively. Take default values or those specified via options on the commandline. =item B<--link-to-image> I First try downloading a link matching image_re, and if that fails look for an image matching image_re. Note that this does not (yet) affect image_re detection. =back =head1 EXIT STATUS Non-zero on grave errors, zero otherwise. =head1 CONFIGURATION B is not configurable. =head1 DEPENDENCIES This script requires the perl module WWW::Mechanize. =head1 BUGS AND LIMITATIONS As for B: This script has no brain. So far, this script is very dumb and fragile. It's recommended to take a quick glance at the image_re before actually calling comirror to make sure you get what you want. =head1 AUTHOR Copyright (C) 2010 by Daniel Friesel Ederf@chaosdorf.deE =head1 LICENSE 0.
