Cd2browse description
|
A command line tool useful for creating html menus out of directory trees mostly used on CDs and DVDs.
Cd2browse is a software that automatically creates html based menus from ordinary directory structures to be published on CD or DVD.
Imagine you have a set of documentation files, such as pdf, Word, Excel, Power Point documents, html files or images, and you want them to be published on CD, but you have no index which points onto the files and gives the bunch of files a structured view. Manually creating a html index will cost a lot of time.
This situation would make a typical case to use Cd2browse.
Therefore, Cd2browse is a command line tool, to create html menus out of directory trees mostly used on CDs and DVDs and it also indexes all files and provides a java script search engine for full text search. Here are some key features of "Cd2browse":
· analyses the file tree, extracts valuable information out of the files, such as title, size, age, and number of pages and creates a browsable html index out of it. In other words after cd2browse has finished, you have a browasable view of the scanned directory structure
· creates thumbnails of images in the file tree - this can be switched off during creation also the size of the thumbnails can be defined
· creates previews of all images in the scanned file tree and make them browsable as a gallery the size can be defined
· provides a offline java script based search engine which allows a full text search. Indexed files are: pdf, word , excel, powerpoint and html documents
· does not affect the file tree itself. The resulting html files are outside the original file tree - so the file tree is not messed up with index or preview files.
· is customizable according to your needs. The look and feel can be changed using templates.
· cd2browse is open source, structured, documented an licensed under the GNU General Public License Version 2.
· Using the menu needs no software installation, you just need a modern browser which is able to run java script. The menus are built in pure html and java script.
· burning the menu and files on cd or dvd will force the cd to auto-start if the disc is inserted into the drive (Windows)
Requirements:
· ActivePerl
