Blorp

What is it?

BoD Blorp is a very simple web file publishing system.
It will list directories and files inside them in a nice fashion.
If a file is a picture or a video, it will also create a thumbnail for it, thus Blorp can be used as a picture gallery.
You can see it run here : http://www.JRAF.org/blorp.

Why the name?

This is my own version of a very similar application written by Justin Frankel (of Nullsoft fame).
Since the applications do essentialy the same thing, I just kept the same name.
The original blorp is written in PHP and can be found here: http://www.1014.org/code/blorpscript/.
