gollark: No, there are just a lot of files on pastebin and it's hard to track down all the places potatOS randomly downloads things.
gollark: ... if I can find it, actually.
gollark: Anyway, I figure I'll start on the whole project *now* by creating a folder™ containing all the potatOS code.
gollark: Plus verifying the checksums and such.
gollark: I think all the updater thing would need to do is:on the non-CC side, just track what files changed since the last release, generate a checksum, and either generate an archive or a bunch of URLs for it.on the CC side, periodically check a manifest file, store its own version locally, check if a newer version is available on the server, and if so download the files which have changed.
