EDIT: Finished AutoHotkey script - Link

What?
This is a zip with all the sma files (1803 files) from the Approved Plugins section as of 2009/06/01 (June 1st 2009).

Why?
Normally, you have to search on the forums for examples of code, and sometimes you can't find a good example.

Now, with a nifty search tool like PowerGREP, you can search through the source code of all approved plugins! This can be very useful as a tool for learning new functions and stuff!

How?
I used AutoHotkey, PowerGREP, and cygwin's wget to complete this little project. I'm in the process of writing coherent instructions to reproduce this project. I might even conglomerate some of my scripts and automate some steps. It can probably be done with AutoHotkey alone, but I ran into a snag, and it certainly can be done by writing a program in a "real" programming language.

It took me a few hours to tweak this and that. I can't guarantee that I got all of the sma files, but I have 1803 sma's, so it's a good start.

The hardest part was dealing with "odd" characters, like spaces and periods at the start or end of folder names, or other characters that didn't behave.

Note:
Do not use this as a "all-in-one" pack to install plugins on your server. Some plugins require additional files like language txt's, models, sprites, sounds, or inc's. This zip does not have any of these files.

Also note that some characters were troublesome and may have been removed or replaced with an underscore ( _ ).

Directory Structure:
Approved AMXX Plugins
Author Name
Plugin Name
plugin.sma
It has been compressed twice to get under the 5.00 MB size limit for zip files. The limit for rar files is set at 9.54 MB for some reason.

Nice, sounds like it was a lot of work.

What is the format of directories.txt? I see a lot of "â" (xe2)in the file. I think it's probably a space or tab or something that is supposed to go there?

I was supposed to take that out before I zipped it

I needed a good token to separate strings, so I used â. Originally, I used commas, but then I found that some users have commas in their names and some people put commas in the plugin names.

I'll try to post the instructions soon, if you're curious.

Completing this project was a learning experience for me, so my first attempt was very messy and hard to follow. I don't want to bother trying to explain how I initially approached the problem, so I put all of the steps into one script, and it worked!

If you have AutoHotkey, you can try my script. I welcome suggestions to improve the script. There are some lazy steps and possibly some mistakes.

However, One's plugin was downloaded this time, so I must be doing something right.

I won't post the zips anymore because they are large. If you want to download all of the plugins, you can try running my script. It usually takes ~5-10 minutes to complete.

Code:
;
; Approved AMXX Plugin Downloader
; Language:       English
; Platform:       Win9x/NT
; Author:         stupok <[email protected]>
;
; Script Function:
;	This script downloads all AMXX approved plugins to a folder called "Approved AMXX Plugins" by parsing html code.
;

; number of entries in the approved plugins list

; temp file for storing stuff
TEMPFILE = temp.txt

; debug file
POSTIDFILE = postids.ini

; download the list

; put the list in a variable
FileRead,MYBUFFER,%TEMPFILE%
FileDelete,%TEMPFILE%

; clean up the variable's contents
StringReplace,MYBUFFER,MYBUFFER,`n,,All
StringReplace,MYBUFFER,MYBUFFER,`r,,All

; remove characters that aren't happy in folder names
MYBUFFER := RegExReplace(MYBUFFER,"&[^a][qlg#]?[ut\d]?[o\d]?[t\d]?\d?\d?;?","_")

; parse the list to get post number, name, author, mod, category
