zipPy

Zippyshare download script, written in Python.

Downloads a list of Zippyshare.com URLs. You can provide the URLs on the command line, from a plain text file (URLs separated by linebreaks), or from a DLC file.

At the end, it will list how many links were downloaded successfully, how many were skipped, and how many failed to download.

If any downloads failed and you want to try them again, simply re-run the same command. zipPy will automatically detect if a file was already downloaded (based on file name) and skip it, so you will not end up with duplicate files.
