A simple magma-parser avaible (post already in the_gdf)
 

Hi,

I created a simple Java-based parser for MAGMA-files, which gets
magnet-links from the files (which can thus be used for automated file-acquisition).

With a simple gathering routine inserted into the program, any program
can get the magnet-links from it.

The Program is avaible under the GPL with test-files.

It can also be used to check the validity of magma-files (with only one test
stilkl ToDo).

Additionally it includes the latest magma-specifications.

By putting a magma-file on your host, you could also send out Updates via the magnets included, so they work like central verification service, with which Users automatically download the files you publish.

It could also be used for automated downloading and subscription to the files of a certain user, or some of the files of a certain User (Phex already includes code to create MAGMA-lists automatically: http://sf.net/projects/phex or http://phex.kouk.de
