Installation

Your Dailystrips installation should be configured in a specific way for stripmgr to function properly. The expected directory tree should like like this:

  (base directory) <-- PLACE STRIPMGR FILES HERE
		Comic Strip A
			2005.04.02.jpg
			2005.04.01.jpg
			...
		Comic Strip B
			...
		...

This corresponds to running Dailystrips like this:

	dailystrips -l --basedir /home/user/public_html/stripmgr \
		--stripdir --noindex \
		stripA stripB stripC etc

Usage notes

Resulting strip image files have to start with their full date which is specified in config.php.
It is recommended to enable indexing and provide a directory writable by your httpd/PHP user to store indexes.
Place stripmgr files in your root strips directory as specified above.

Keyboard shortcuts

n, right - next page
p, left - previous page
r - refresh in frontpage mode, revert display in zoom to strip mode
c - toggle calendar (in zoom mode)
