Televideo RAI Ultim'ora Retriever

by Paolo Cravero

From the README file:

I have written this software for my personal usage when
travelling over to my girlfriend abroad. Not being able
to understand her local language I have to consult RAI
Ultim'ora pages online. Besides being quite a time consuming
operation, I was annoyed by the overload of information of
RAI's Televideo homepage (www.televideo.rai.it).
Thus I wrote something that could bring to my hard-disk
the news every time I connected to Internet, on-demand.

In other words, tvdrai is a PERL command line script that fetches latest newsfeeds from Italian TV RAI teletext service. Newsfeeds are stored on your local disk as HTML files.
This is a stable release of a software written for myself, which might require further improvements to fit all user needs.
This software is released under the GPL license.

REQUIREMENTS:
You need to have a

PERL interpreter 5.x or greater + PERL IO::File module installed
lynx web browser 2.8.x or greater
internet connection :-)
some disk space to store newsfeeds (1 newsfeed is 3k)

Please download the source and (short) documentation: tvdrai-1.1.tar.gz
Older versions: 1.0, 0.2, 0.1

This page is best viewed with lynx.
