I have been looking for some time for an application that will easily automate the packing, PARing, Spliting and uploading to usenet.
Does anyone know if one exists?

I have so much to share and find many times the process can be very time consuming to package it all up.

My thought would be to have a folder that is scanned for new files. Simply drop a folder with the 'image' and 'nfo" etc  into the scanned app folder. The app will kick in splitting the files based on File size to a mutiple RAR formation. Then Create PAR2 files the same. Add these newly created filles to PowerPost and begin the upload process. After complete with no error it would delete the created files placing the original in a completed/prossed folder.

Nice and automated.



Anything like this? Or will this become my next software project?
thanks


FYI: I did see a NIX script somewhere but I'm looking for Windows.

I've wondered the same myself.  I thinks it odd that the powerpost application was last updated sometime in 2004.

There's a void in the niche market, we need a sabnzbd for uploading.

I will have to give that a go , icurrently rar and par manually and use powerpost to upload and sometimes i just can't be bothered so  anything thats makes the process quicker and easier is always welcome.

  Powerpost might have been updated in 2004 but it barely changed since it was first released.

To save time I have some scripts I use to do this.
Create archives with WinRAR:
SET FN=filename
WinRAR a -v50000 %FN%*

The command I use to create par files in batch:
par2.exe c -r10 "%FN%" *.rar
the -r10 switch means 10%

What about posting, can that be done in batch?
