A simple java command line application for Amazon Glacier. You can find the latest version at https://github.com/MoriTanosuke/glacieruploader/.
Either download a binary, download a nightly build or build the software yourself from sourcecode.

When running the uploader, specify the path to this file with --credentials /path/to/aws.properties
or set the default in your configuration file. If you don't specify this option, the default is to
search for the file in javas user.home directory.
