<font size="4">I have just pushed new DXSpider command 'download',
it is a bit experimental, but I have been using it successfully in
a few places. There may be additional facilities added to it based
on demand. Here is what the Changes file says (can't be bothered
to type it all out again):<br>
<font face="monospace"><br>
1. I am aware that there are windows nodes out there on mojo
(brave, impetuous <br>
that you are) and wget is not an easy option to download
badip files. So, <br>
through the power of mojo I give you the new 'download'
command. As it <br>
stands at the moment, it will download a file from a
webserver and place<br>
it in /spider/local_data. If it downloads successfully, it
will overwrite<br>
any file with that name in /spider/local_data. Needless to
say this is a <br>
sysop only command. <br>
<br>
24 * * * * run_cmd('download
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.dxspider.net/download/badip.torexit">http://www.dxspider.net/download/badip.torexit</a>')<br>
24 * * * * run_cmd('download
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.dxspider.net/download/badip.torrelay">http://www.dxspider.net/download/badip.torrelay</a>')<br>

<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.dxspider.net/download/badip.global">http://www.dxspider.net/download/badip.global</a>')<br>
25 * * * * run_cmd('load/badip')<br>
<br>
would be an obvious use. But it can also be used to download
spot, USDB <br>
and other data as well. If you do use it then you will still
need to <br>
do a spawn_cmd in crontab for the conversion programs, but
that too is <br>
going to change.<br>
</font><br>
You don't need to restart, everything it does is in the command. <br>
<br>
Enjoy<br>
