AtoMiC ToolKit January 2016: Overhaul and Webmin support

AtoMiC ToolKit (Automated Media Center), automates home server software installation and maintenance. We have written in detail about how AtoMiC ToolKit works. In October 2015, I summarized several upgrades that were done to AtoMiC ToolKit, including support for Headphones and Mylar. Today, I happy to announce that it has received several changes, improvements, and fixes. Read on to see what this January 2016 update brings.

AtoMiC ToolKit January Update

Over the last several weeks I have not published many articles because I have been focusing on rebuilding AtoMiC ToolKit from scratch. Most of the work has been behind the scenes in making AtoMiC ToolKit more robust for what is to come in future. But here are some major changes you may notice:

• Full Webmin support - Install, Uninstall, Backup, and Restore
• CouchPotato - Manual Update
• SickBeard - Manual Update
• SickRage - Manual Update
• SickGear - Manual Update
• Completely rebuilt all scripts from scratch
• Improved app backups
• Improved app restore
• Cleaned up code
• Added option to delete old backups
• Added option to delete temporary data
• Rearranged structure - for more modular appearance and development

Notice that some of the apps are marked "Broken". Yes, at this point there are issues with those scripts and it is on my todo list to fix those. So hang tight. Rest everything has been tested to work on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
