Automatically find and download PDFs given only PMIDs

  • Crawls the web to locate full-text PDF files, given only a Pubmed ID.
  • Automatically catalogs PDFs by searching inside them for DOIs
  • Provides a server that proxies PDF searches and caches the found PDFs (e.g., could be useful for a research group to share a bunch of papers)
  • Probably does other neat things that I don't remember

This project is defunct; I now use  Sente to download PDFs.
