GDataCopier was developed and tested using UNIX style operating systems with the following bits and pieces installed

• Python 2.5 or better, this is because we use cookielib
• Google Data Python libraries, available from http://code.google.com/apis/
• Not to mention a connection to the Internet :-)

Python library dependencies

• GData API depends on the python-elementree libraries

Quick installation steps

If you are intending to use gdatacopier behind a proxy then please read the wiki article on ProxySupport

• Use 'python --version' to reveal the installed version of Python
• Copy the two files (gdatacopier.py, gdoc-cp.py to a directory you like)
• chmod +x (to make the scripts runnable)
• You are ready to use gdoc-cp or gdatacopier, see Usage examples or read APIDocumentation to see how you can use it in your own scripts
