DUPLICATES MANAGER FOR COMICRACK
Updated with NEW RULES, see the rules wiki
v0.9 ->
Added: - New rules:
- scan keep/remove
- New toolbar icon
- Fix for typos and rare crash
Since I do not want to mess with your files & library before we are sure this thing works right,
the script out of the box will not move or remove any comic, just log what it would do in the logfile. To enable the actual processing of files you need to add the values true for the variables MOVEFILES and REMOVEFROMLIB in the dmrules.dat file. See the Configuration Options Wiki page for details. |

This script is an addon to comicrack that identifies duplicated ecomics and follows a set of user defined rules to remove unwanted dupes. It is designed with the 0-days in mind, but should prove useful in other scenarios.
The script reads a file (dmrules.dat) from the directory where it is installed, that contains, both user options, and a series of rules to manage the duplicate files. Duplicate files that meet the criteria expressed in the rules are moved to a dump directory (not deleted) and removed from the comicrack library (default dump directory is C:\_dupes_
). This directory also holds a logfile (logfile.log) that details the process followed on your comics
So, the first thing you want to do is read the rules (see wiki) and edit your custom dmrules.dat file.
