Owie. Someone tried to do it before, so you could probably use that as a
starting point, but *damn* there's a lot of Ranma fanfic. (About 15 Megs

Darn Newbies. :) I've already done this. (Except my page is *way* out
of date) I'm working on it I swear!
Who are you callin' newbie?! Back when I joined the net we had to use carrier
pigeons to carry the IP packets and then type them in by hand at the other end.

I've got the base of the script running (check the manga portion of the kor page
at http://ghost.res.cmu.edu/kor/manga.html a look at the current results of the
script) I'm still having problems with the recursive directory parser though,
since the std archive doesn't have the nice regular structure that the manga
dirs do. After that I just have to add the provisions to read a 1 or 2 line
description for a db file and stick it after the link. Shouldn't be that bad.
I might also fiddle with the txt2html.pl script I'm using to get better results
on the translation for some of the pieces.
