Zussaweb modifications for Newzbin
Today I modified Zussaweb, the PHP frontend to HellaNZB that I mentioned in a previous post.
I like Zussaweb, but it was missing one crucial thing for me, and that was that it didn’t accept Newzbin ID’s which is about the quickest way to get a file from Newzbin’s listings.
I therefore patched Zussaweb and put in the form. It only took 10 minutes including the testing, but now I have a great little program with most of things I liked about hellahella without the pain that went with it.
I have emailed a maintainer of Zussaweb to ask if they would consider my update being in the main distribution but if this is not possible I am going to post up the details here.

Did you ever here from Zussaweb re: Newzbin IDs? I’m interested in this function myself…

Could you post that patch. I’ve just started using it and would love to have that functionality.

I have submitted the patch to the maintainers of the project. I am going to send them an email to make sure that its ok, if not I will detail on how to make the patch on this blog. Its quite easy so should only be a few steps.

Please post the patch. The maintainer fucked up his release. The file frontend.php in this release
is not a PHP-file, but a bzipped tarfile containing the complete release without the file frontend.php
