        I had a web-based convertor up for awhile on the previous versions
of the Plucker site, but took it down when I moved the codebase over to
this new version of the site.

        If you want, you can still play with it at the link below. I just
spent a few minutes converting it over to the current perl version and
changed it from using .tar.gz output files to .zip instead, for the
Windows and Mac users who don't know what to do with tar.gz files.

        There are probably some bugs, some issues with response codes from
wacky redirect-to-some-other-site sites (Angelfire is one that comes to
mind), but it does work, and is relatively fast overall.

        If it becomes important enough to mature further, I'll entertain
suggestions for new features, fixes, and so on. Perhaps a better name for
the tool would be in order =)

        If you find any bugs, please report them to me directly, and I'll
try to fix them as soon as I have some spare time to direct to them.
