Plugin Description
This plug-in aims to make importing from DMOZ much easier. Simply choose the categories you want to import, press the button, log in via SSH/Telnet, and type in a couple of commands (given to you after running the script generation part of the plugin).
I originally wrote this Plugin for myself, but soon realised how much more use it would be to other LinksSQL users. Basically, what this plugin does is write about 7-8 commands for each category Dump. This makes the whole import process go faster, because you don't have to sit there manually and painstakingly type out all the messages. Imagine, for 4 categories, it would require about 28-30 commands. As you can imagine, this takes a long time to do. Using this plugin, it minimizes it to 2 commands (which are given to you right after the .cgi script has been built).
So, in short, this Plugin writes a .cgi script, which you then run from Telnet/SSH to do the complete import (from downloading the content.rdf.u8.gz file, to repairing the database count after the installs).
Please note, if you are purchasing a "site license", this entitles you to upto 4 installations of this Plugin. A normal licence, is only valid on one site, and if people are found breaching the license agreement, we may revoke their support (proof is needed).
