extract links/files from one or multiple website or directory listings

Webcow is a small and handy tool to get the links out of directory listings or webpages. It was first created to get all files of an Apache* directory listing. Within the development, I was asked for publishing and improvements, some errorfixing options and file-filters were added. Today webcow is a swiss army knive for web-based downloads. Next to its own downloader it supports all major download apps. You can even use it to sort textfiles or process them in some way. WebCow allows you to apply sorting and filtering , then downloads them. You can use it to extract web pages (.html), images, MP3 files, Zip files etc. and quickly save them to a folder. The downloaded files can also be automatically renamed to include the full server path of the originating site. Extracted links can be saved as file lists for later use. Webcow also offers a "Light and Leech" feature that allows you to highlight an area of a page and get all the links that are within the highlighted area.
