it sure did take a lot longer than i'd really like but it finally works. had to rewrite [src/updategemini] and [src/updatehtml] to work with [lsdif] but frankly none of this should have taken as long as I took to do it. I just couldn't find the motivation every time I looked at the code until today. one annoying thing about the code is that the var 'dst' is actually the 'src' and vice versa, it turns out I made a logic error and the easiest way to fix it was swaping the variable names from how it's actually used. (the error was that since the var dst is checked last, we are using it as the cannonical list of files which should be present. so if src has a file that dst doesn't know about we ignore it. This is a problem if i create a new entry in the site, which I do nearly every update. i may go through and rename src to dst and vice versa but 'it works' correctly as it is
