Abstract
Instructions for using Curator under a Windows platform.
The Python Imaging Library is what is used to convert the files.
Get pre-built binaries from: http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/
(the pre-built PIL for 2.3b will work for version 2.3)
Run the downloaded install program.
Make sure that you install it for your Python install. The detection should do it automatically for you.
Note: I have noticed that I could not edit the destination location when installing the files with the Windows installer. So I installed it anyway and copied the files by hand under the Python23/Libs/site-packages/PIL subdirectory, and it works well.
Get it from http://curator.sourceforge.net/
Uncompress the files:
cd "c:/Program Files" tar zxf c:/tmp/curator-<ver>.tar.gz
Note that you need some kind of tar tools (Cygwin has one) to unzip the files here. I should provide zipped code at some point. This only runs from a shell, so I'm assuming you already have installed Cygwin or MKS tools.
Like this:
C:/Python/python.exe C:/Program\ Files/curator/bin/curator --pil
I suggest using the --out-onedir option to avoid cluttering the input directory. The output files should be located under a new html directory.
