jigl 2.0.1

A perl script that generates a static html photo gallery from one or more directories of gif/jpg/png images jigl includes the ability to display comments and EXIF info for each image in a simple clean layout. jigl supports themes and is very customizable.
jigl is written completely from scratch but the idea is heavily based on the program igal. igal did much of what I wanted, but there were a number of things I didnt like about it and found it difficult to modify. I wanted a cleaner solution, and thus jigl was born.
Main features:
- jigl is one file - minimizing files for installation and maintenance.
