Towards a proper FlightLog 11 -- The Library

Ok, so I bit the bullet ...

• extracted all external links from my capsule
• wrote a script to read the file and download the listed gemini links with gcat
• needed several iterations, because my script is too simplistic, of course
• searched several entries using geminispace.info and found about half of them again :)
• manually edited the list of links along the way
• download documents once more
• manually added them documents to The Library, finding a few more errors along the way
• added "local copy" links below most external links in my posts
• made a git mess along the way :(
• forgot to update all the checksums ... many are lousy now :((

Writing a complete, commented index for The Library is still to be done. Since I am lazy, a shell one liner must serve as starting point:

find . -maxdepth 1 -type d | grep -v '^\.$' | LANG=C sort | while read D ; do echo "### $D" ;  find $D -type f|sed 's|^|=> /library/|'; done > auto_index.gmi

Cheers,
