I think that euscan would benefit of this feature, but the your |
50 |
arguments against ruby/paludis aren't valid IMO. If the euscan guys |
51 |
want to integrate the feature, nice. If not, lets just stick with this |
52 |
script. It is simple enough that even ruby n00bs like me can |
53 |
understand what it does :P |
