The main purpose of this prog is to help user to fetch the ptt content based on the board name like car

*bbs_crawler_public.exe [OPTIONS] ptt's board_name index_number*

You can use bbs_crawler to figure out how many index page the PTT board is by fetch_index option and fetch the post page against each index by "fetch_page" plus the designated end of index to iterate from index 1 to yours designation.

assuming you install python already.

• run bbs_crawler_public.py with fetch_index plus ptt's board name like the following

**$python bbs_crawler_public.py -c fetch_index car**

or

• run bbs_crawler_public.py with fetch_page plus the designated end of index number like the following - iterate from index 1 to index 6

**$python bbs_crawler_public.py -c fetch_page car 6** 

if you do not install python and use Windows OS, use bbs_crawler_public.exe instead of bbs_crawler_public.py to run the examples above
