earth — Sun, 24 Jul 2005 07:59:07 -0000

More than just a bug fix release, Sperowider 1.4.0 now supports a simplified mode in which a single command line parameter (--url==[url]) will do a spider and a download with basic default settings.

As part of this release, the configuration model for specifying the configuration file name and target has changed somewhat. Now use --config=[config] and --target=[target].

Sperowider 1.2.0 adds new stability and bug handling as well as a number of features and better weird url handling. The major feature in 1.2 is to use hsqldb on disk instead of in RAM, making the required memory for huge sites much lower. Lots of little fixes as well.
