scraper 0.1.0

Description

This module is an easy to use HTML/XML scraper. It supports both XPath and Regular Expression retrieval.

Once you have a file you want to extract information from, you can extract multiple pieces of information with a simple function call.

You should obtain the files you want to scrape by your own ways.
