I'm not here to beg for a script. But I figure it's something that can, in the end, benefit quite a few people.

There's a site I've been using lately - http://www.filesearching.com - which has saved me hours of downloading. It's a mirror search engine, which searches FTP sites for the file you specify.

If one could, say, !filesearch <filename> inside of IRC, and have the results/links displayed back, could be very neat.

I've seen google scripts and such, and after looking at the filesearching.com website, after you do a search the links are displayed numerically. 1. (link) .. 2. (link) and so forth. I've only even slightly messed around with TCL, and haven't a clue as to where I'd begin. Likely with a google searching script of some sort.

If anyone wants to take a shot at this, I think it would be worth your (and other peoples) time.

I won't bump this. I'm not here to beg and plead for it.. it was just an idea.
