Dzlad :: Another AUR helper lad ::

I have uploaded dzlad using dzlad to the dzlad AUR page

Dzlad helps you do some AUR tasks:
* Upload tarballs, allowing you to vote and add a comment upon submission.
* Check for upgradable AUR packages.
* Download build scripts from AUR.
* Search for packages in the Name and Description fields, with results sorted by Name or Votes.
* Search packages by Maintainer. This is useful for checking for out-of-date packages maintained by you.
* Colored and formatted output.
* Vote for dzlad, and other operations like flag out-of-date, adopt/disown packages, and such.

What it does not do:
* Build or install packages.
* Resolve dependencies.
* Dangerous things (except for writing to ~/.dzlad).

For those interested, dzlad is written in ruby, and it's hosted on github
Or you can pull the source and see:

git clone git://github.com/lolilolicon/dzlad.git

Side note: As a lad who has learned ruby for just less than two weeks, I'm not to blame if it fries you a turkey.

To stay OT, you can find several examples by issuing `dzlad --examples' (or just `dzlad --e', you lazy piggie)

Cheers.
