FireANT

Josh Kinberg (he of the crazed bicycle mounted dot-matrix printer) sent me an email telling me that the new version of FireANT that runs on Windows XP is available. I had actually never donwloaded the Mac version, which I did today. It seems pretty slick. I’m not actually turning on the automatic downloads just yet because I have enough problems with running out of space on this machine.

At one point, a little bit of code from my get_enclosures script existed in ANT but I’m not sure if that’s the case anymore. I didn’t see my name credited in the list, so I’m guessing that they have improved things enough that my lousy Perl has flaked off as cruft. I’m not sure of the difference between ANT and FireANT (if any.)
