good for you.. make it! what is your question?

if your question is 'how do i do it?' then start with the information im listing.

PHP's Directory Functions:
http://us3.php.net/dir

PHP's Function for Executing External Programs:
http://us2.php.net/function.exec

that is all you need for what you want to make.
