- webspiderus 16y agothis is awesome! this'll save me much time (cumulatively) that i would've spent going to the HN front page and seeing that I've read all the articles anyway .. great idea making it top-like.
- djacobs 16y agoI see in your TODO you want to open stories in a browser. My two cents'? Shell out to Lynx. (Or, of course, whatever someone has BROWSER set to.)
- b14ck 16y agoI like this a lot. My suggestion would be to write a nice distutils package, then put it into the python cheeseshop. I'd be willing to generate one for you if you want. Looks great though, I will definitely be using this :)
- Rauchg 16y agoIs this significantly better than using Lynx?
- grimboy 16y agoYes. You can leave it open somewhere all the time and check up on it like idling on irc. Pointless? Perhaps, but people like it anyway.
- RiderOfGiraffes 16y agoDoesn't work under Python 2.2.1 as there is no module "curses". This isn't a complaint because the machine is so old, but I thought I'd give you a "heads up" in case you get that report from someone else.
