signed Java Applet (that can also be run as an application).

----
Notes:
You must install the Java JRE to use this program.
See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/jgloss/jre.html
This hybrid program is mainly designed to be used as an Applet in a
browser but is can also be used from the command prompt, e.g. under
Windows command.exe or JPSoft tcmd.exe, formerly called the DOS box. Just
clicking the programs in a directory listing will not do anything useful.
Just typing the program names at the command prompt will not either.
This program requires a manual install! See below.
I put out an avalanche of free software into the world, and submit PAD
files to hundreds of distribution sites, but I rarely hear back from
anyone. What's happening? Does it all just work fine? It is so
complicated nobody can figure out how to use it and they give up on it?
It is it useful? Since everyone has the source, do people just fix the
programs to their liking themselves? Did you have trouble installing? Do
I presume you know too much? I would be happy to hear from you about your
experiences, positive or negative and your requests for improvements. A
one-line email to roedy@mindprod.com would be great.
===> Free <===
Full source included.
You may even include the source code, modified or unmodified
in free/commercial open source/proprietary programs that you write and distribute.
May be used freely for any purpose but military.
For more details on this restriction, see
http://mindprod.com/contact/nonmil.html
If you include any Canadian Mind Products code in your own applications,
your app too must be labelled non-military use only.
http://mindprod.com/contact/nonmil.html
All Java jars and source code are included. If you need the class files or Javadoc, you will have to build them yourself. To streamline the zip downloads, class files and Javadoc have been removed.
----
Prerequisites:
This program runs under any OS that supports Java,
(e.g.W2K/XP/W2003/Vista/W2008/W7-32/W7-64/W8-32/W8-64/Linux/LinuxARM/LinuxX86
/LinuxX64/Ubuntu/Solaris/SolarisSPARC/SolarisSPARC64/SolarisX86/SolarisX64/OSX/AIX...)
so long as you have
<><> Java version 1.6 <><> or later installed (32-bit or 64-bit Java).
See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/installingjava.html for details.
----
Installing on a PC:
Download source and compiled jar files to run on your own machine as an application or Applet
First install a recent Java JDK or JVM.
See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/installingjava.html.
To install, extract the zip download with WinZip
(or similar unzip utility) into any directory you please,
often J:\ -- ticking off the use folder names option.
To run as an application, type:
java.exe -ea -jar J:\com\mindprod\submitter\submitter.jar {put any parms here}
adjusting as necessary to account for where the jar file is.
----
Installing on a MacIntosh:
Use Safari to download source and compiled jar files to run on your own machine as an application or Applet.
Safari will automatically unpack the zip into ~/Downloads (version 10.5)
[or on the Desktop (version 10.4 and earlier)].
First install a recent Java JDK or JVM.
See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/installingjava.html.
You may optionally move the download tree to a permanent home.
I don't have a MacIntosh, just a PC, so I can't test my Java programs for Mac compatibility.
In theory they should work without problems, but in practice that does not always happen.
If you have problems please, let me know, preferably with screenshots and complete verbatim error messages.
To run as an application, without parameters, just double click the jar file.
To run as an application with parameters, in bash shell type:
open Terminal.app
cd ~/Desktop
java.exe -ea -jar com/mindprod/submitter/submitter.jar {put any parms here}
adjusting as necessary to account for where the jar file is.
----
Rebuilding:
The zip already contains the necessary jar files, so unless you modify
the program, there is no need to recompile the source or rebuild the jar.
Configure.java basedir="E:/" in rebuild.xml to the drive where your files are.
Configure.java your certificate name with environment SET cert=mindprodcert2013dsa
Configure.java your certificate password with environment SET jarsignerpassword=sesame
Use ANT and rebuild.xml, not build.xml, to recompile and recreate the jar.
----
Use:
Submitter will submit your PAD *.xml program descriptor file to 174 PADsites.
Unlike other submission programs, it submits only to PADSites
that welcome automated submissions. Compose your PAD *.xml file using a
program like PADGen, then upload it you your website. Then enter the URL
of your website directory where you upload pads and the name of the pad
itself e.g. hypotheticalprogram.xml, then hit SUBMIT. It also has a
batch mode to submit a list of PADs to a list of PAD submission sites.
The advantages of Mini Pad Submitter over other similar programs are:
- The program is free.
- You are not required to install any software on your machine, (though
you can optionally).
- CMP checks all the submission websites twice daily to make sure they are
still operational and removes any deadwood from the list.
- No hassle setting accounts or passwords or key any hard-to-read captcha
security codes.
- All is completely automatic. All you need to supply is the PAD url.
- The program avoids submitting to sites that have onerous restrictions
such as demanding a back link.
- The program is open source (full Java source code provided for you to
study or modify).
- The list of sites has been gradually shrinking as submission sites go
out of business. Other lists of submission sites are mostly dead wood. I
prune out deadwood twice a day. There are so many of them, that it is
hard to attract enough traffic to support them with advertising revenue.

See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/pad.html for hints on
creating your PAD file.
You can run it as a signed Applet or as standalone application:
java com.mindprod.submitter.Submitter
The Applet must be signed to allow it to talk to a variety
of websites and to use the registry to persist just which
pads it has already submitted.
If you turn on the Java console, you can view the log of how
the various websites responded. Normally you just get to
see them for a few seconds.
If you want to study the responses more carefully, the
responses from the websites are captured in files in the
current directory of the form xxxx_yyyy.log.html where xxxx
is the name of the pad and yyyy in the name of the
submission site. You can look at them with a browser or a
text editor.
SUBMITBATCH
---
There is also a batch version of the program. To use it, you
prepare a list of complete URLs of your pad files on your website
like this:
http://mysite.com/pad/fantastic.xml
http://mysite.com/pad/great.xml
http://mysite.com/pad/astounding.xml
;http://ignorethissite.com/alreadydone.xml
Lead semicolon means ignore, treat as comment.
Don't put any blank lines in the file or at the end!
and put the list in a text file somewhere, called for
example E:\env\pads.list
You must have previously uploaded all these pads and the
corresponding programs to your website.
Then you can can submit that entire list of pads to every
website with one command:
java.exe -jar submitbatch.jar E:\env\pads.list
You might want to use 4NT scrolling, > output.txt or a tee
utility to capture the voluminous console output to a file.
Unlike the Applet version, the batch version will not stop
you from frequently resubmitting PADs. Don't abuse that
freedom, or the PAD websites may block you.
You can also limit which sites you submit the list to by supplying
a second parameter, e.g.
java.exe -jar submitbatch.jar E:\env\pads.list E:\env\somesites.list
Where somesites.list looks like this:
DownloadoManiac
ZDown
Submit batch logs site responses the same way Submitter does.
Using the site names spelled precisely as is the list above.
LOGGING
---
If you run Submitter in a browser, you can turn on logging (a record of
how each site responded to each PAD submission) by providing a directory
to dump the log files to with a logDir parameter.
e.g.
If you leave off the parameter, logging is suppressed.
If you run Submitter from the command line, you can turn on logging by
providing a directory to dump the log files to on the command line.
e.g. java.exe -jar submitter.jar C:\temp
If you leave off the parameter, logging is suppressed.
With SubmitBatch, logging is always turned on, and the logs are always placed
in the current directory.
ICON
Why the megaphone icon? It represents spreading the word about the
programs you have written.
