Ok first off if you haven't seen woofy (http://woofy.sourceforge.net/) it's a webcomic downloader. I find it very nice for reading archives of comics on my eReader. That is, when it will download them.

Right now I'm trying to get it to download The Wotch:Cheer (http://www.cheercomic.com/) but I can't get it to download any but the current comic.

It wouldn't even find the current before but I can't get the backButtonRegex right now.

If any of you enterprising individuals are willing to help I would be very appreciative. I'll stick my code below.

~Lify

Code:
<xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8">
<comicInfo friendlyName="The Wotch - Cheer!" author="Citizen Drago" allowMultipleStrips="true" allowMissingStrips="true">
    <startUrl><CDATA></startUrl>
    <firstIssue><CDATA></firstIssue>
    <comicRegex><CDATA src='(?<content>comics/[0-9]{4}/[0-9]{1,2}/[0-9]{8}_?[^.]*\.(gif|jpg|jpeg|png))'></comicRegex>

<backButtonRegex><![CDATA[<a shref='..date=[0-9]{4}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2}' sclass='navimg'><img\sid='navimg3'\ssrc='/templates/cheer/arrow_prev.gif'' width='70'\sheight='56'\salt=''\stitle=''\s/></a>]]></backButtonRegex>
</comicInfo>



P.S. If you haven't checked out an eReader and can afford one I love my Sony PRS-505 for everything. Books are excellent and comics almost look drawn on the screen.

Well I knew it was too much to ask for a fast responce here these days :-p It's not like there is a flurry of activity over at it's site either. At least it mostly works for Misfile and the rest of the comics I read

I saw it yesterday, but it's the first time I'd even heard of the thing so I couldn't help you.

I figured. It's the whole Regex thing that I can't get right.

My problem with Misfile is that the files are all named index.php so when I went to save the back-strips I had to save each file and name them individually.
And if there is one thing I hate, its individuality.

Use woofy. It misses a couple of the comics for some reason, only in Misfile from what I've seen (I think it's failed on 10 out of 1200), but it names them appropriately.

Misfile is missing those comics, for some reason there are a bunch that didn't get numbered correctly and skip a place. I think they must upload and number them manually or something that would be why they make the mistake.

90 and 158 do exist. The rest didn't. The only thing I can think is there were guest strips they pulled down.

(?<content>comics/200([5-9])/([0-9]{1,2})/200\1\2[0-3][0-9]_[^\.]{4}\.(gif|jpg|jpeg|png))

maybe? I'm not sure what regex syntax this is using

Thanks Toss.

It's somewhat immaterial now since Vlad got a DMCA notice and has decided to abandon the project.

Sad days.

Well now I'm not wearing pants and am using a globe I set on fire to provide me with warmth.
