This file is created automatically with default values after first use.
Edit $HOME/.config/libg/libg.sh to change default values:
DEFAULT_RESPERPAGE=100 # default number of search results per page (allowed values: 25, 50, 100)
DEFAULT_DEPTH=1 # default number of result pages to scan (allowed values: any positive integer)
LIBGEN_MIRROR="https://libgen.rs" # alternatives: *.is, *.rs, *.st
DOWNLOAD_LOCATION="" # default download location (if empty then books will be downloaded to current directory)Note: Giving any value except for 25, 50 or 100 for DEFAULT_RESPERPAGE will default it to 25.
Since it is just a small shell script, just download the script, give it executable permissions and place it in a directory that is in $PATH.
The only dependency is fzf: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.
This is usually available on standard linux repositories for almost all distributions.
The other dependencies are sed(GNU), awk, curl and wget but are present by default in most Linux installs.
