Short: Parse and view TV listings files v 1.1 Author: freym@icon.fi (Frey Mansikkaniemi) Uploader: freym icon fi (Frey Mansikkaniemi) Type: util/misc Version: 1.1 Replaces: util/misc/TVGuide.lha Requires: OS 3.0+, MUI 3.8+ Architecture: m68k-amigaos A little piece of program I wrote mainly for my own needs. It reads and tries to understand text files containing TV listings. It then keeps track of which TV programs are on and shows them in a listview. Alternatively you can obtain the same information using Whatson's ARexx interface. The most practical use for this program is to download the listings from the Internet with a program like GrabURL (get it from Aminet) and convert them from HTML to ASCII with some other program like httx (available on Aminet). If you don't have the luxury of a permanent Internet connection you could set up an ARexx script to automatically get the files every time you go online... Well as I said I made it mainly with myself in mind, so don't expect any fancy docs etc. Right now it's freeware (for personal use only) but the future of the program is largely dependent on the feedback I get from other users so please let me know what you think about it. Send bug reports and feedback to freym@icon.fi. History ======= v 1.0 First release v 1.1 Changed name of program from TVGuide to Whatson to make it more original and avoid confusion with comm/www/TVGuide.lha. Also added ARexx script to automatically get listings off the Internet.
