Hi Linc

first of all: thank you very much for your piece of software. My
experience with podcast grabbers is not so fun; I have tried a lot of
them but noone suits completely my needs. I was used to jPodder but it
isn't so good (and it is written in Java). After a little (and
completely unsuccessful) search, I remembered of BashPodder (which I
tried more or less one year ago and I found too much simple; at
that time, I wasn't involved in bash scripting at all). So I started to
analise the user contributions and I was able to find some useful
modifications that I need. Obviously, these modifications wasn't enough
for me: I needed, for example, to store all podcasts in a particular
directory (say, ~user/media/podcasts), in spite of where BashPodder was
launched. So, I worked on it.

The result is ImPodder.sh, Improved BashPodder. It's more complicated
than your BashPodder (so it doesn't conform to KISS philosophy), but
adds more interesting features. I believe it isn't a BashPodder
replacement: BP is more minimalistic than ImPodder. So, if you don't
require so much features, BP is surely The Choice.

To make ImPodder.sh a little more customizable, I've added a
configuration file (other than the one that contains the feed URLs):
all changes to 'ip.conf' file will be dynamic so you won't need to
reinstall it.

For simplicity, I put all the explanations and required scripts
on a web page:
http://syntaxerrormmm.altervista.org/impodder/

The latest tarball contains also an 'install.sh' script which guides
the user through the installation process.

I don't attach the tarball here (though it's only 8 Kb) just not to
waste your bandwidth.

Thanks for your very good job, Happy hacking.
