gallery-dvk

gallery-dvk is a command-line program designed to download media from various media sharing websites: See Supported Sites

It is heavily inspired by gallery-dl, and if I were smart, I probably would have just forked gallery-dl, but I couldn't fully wrap my head around how the codebase works, so here we are. I may not be able to parse the code very well, but I've ripped off gallery-dl's user documentation pretty thoroughly here.
