I am an advocate of whatever steps we can take to make the end-user's life easier, but I wanted to make an observation about that idea. I don't believe it will be as easily solved using programmatic tools. For example, I downloaded javamail-1_3_3_01.zip, and it contained: javamail-1.3.3_01/lib/mailapi.jar javamail-1.3.3_01/lib/imap.jar javamail-1.3.3_01/lib/smtp.jar javamail-1.3.3_01/lib/pop3.jar javamail-1.3.3_01/mail.jar Now do we just say every jar inside the outer package is extracted, renamed to $outer_version and installed in the local repo? What about JWSDP, which is distributed in an installshield shar and contains TONS of sub-jars? > Do you know of anything that we can use to easily make screen scapers? That said, to answer your question I've had great success using a combination of jtidy and nekohtml for that very purpose. A few XSLT scripts and the data flies right out.
