Sitemap Generator is a python script which will generate an xml Sitemap for your web site.
The sitemap_gen.py script analyzes your web server and generates one or more Sitemap files. These files are XML listings of content you make available on your web server. The files can be directly submitted to search engines as hints for the search engine web crawlers as they index your web site. This can result in better coverage of your web content in search engine indices, and less of your bandwidth spent doing it.
The sitemap_gen.py script is written in Python 2.2 and released to the open source community for continuous improvements.
