Can I just say, this is such a frustrating and yet enormously rewarding field of study. I'm in the middle of configuring GeekTool (Uh oh, stupid n00b) and I really only have one question.
I'm using Automator to grab a RSS feed, having GeekTool continually run that application every 10 minutes, putting the results in a text file and then displaying that .txt file. However, the RSS codes their dates by their standards and I don't know how to intercept that and change them to my own time zone.
Here's a picture:
Here's the GeekTool code that runs it:
Code:
head -n 300 ~/Documents/Notes/GeekTool/RSS/Cheatsheet.txt | tr '[\n]' '~' | sed 's/~~/\
/g' | sed 's/~//g' | sed 's/-0000//g'

Bonus question: Why is my script cutting off the text file at "NASA unveils ..."? There's plenty room in the window and the actual text file has more content than that. Is there a character limit cut-off that I'm missing in the code?

xml::rss::headline
XML::RSS::Headline(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation XML::RSS::Headline(3pm)NAME
XML::RSS::Headline - Persistant XML RSS Encapsulation
VERSION
2.2
SYNOPSIS
Headline object to encapsulate the headline/URL combination of a RSS feed. It provides a unique id either by way of the URL or by doing an
MD5 checksum on the headline (when URL uniqueness fails).
CONSTRUCTOR
XML::RSS::Headline->new( headline => $headline, url => $url )
XML::RSS::Headline->new( item => $item )
A XML::RSS::Headline object can be initialized either with headline/url or with a parse XML::RSS item structure. The argument 'head-
line_as_id' is optional and takes a boolean as its value.
METHODS
$headline->id
The id is our unique identifier for a headline/url combination. Its how we can keep track of which headlines we have seen before and which
ones are new. The id is either the URL or a MD5 checksum generated from the headline text (if $headline->headline_as_id is true);
$headline->multiline_headline
This method returns the headline as either an array or array reference based on context. It splits headline on newline characters into the
array.
$headline->item( $item )
Init the object for a parsed RSS item returned by XML::RSS.
$headline->set_first_seen
$headline->set_first_seen( Time::HiRes::time() )
Set the time of when the headline was first seen. If you pass in a value it will be used otherwise calls Time::HiRes::time().
$headline->first_seen
The time (in epoch seconds) of when the headline was first seen.
$headline->first_seen_hires
The time (in epoch seconds and milliseconds) of when the headline was first seen.
GET /SET ACCESSOR METHODS
$headline->headline
$headline->headline( $headline )
The rss headline/title. HTML::Entities::decode_entities is used when the headline is set. (not sure why XML::RSS doesn't do this)
$headline->url
$headline->url( $url )
The rss link/url. URI->canonical is called to attempt to normalize the URL
$headline->description
$headline->description( $description )
The description of the RSS headline.
$headline->headline_as_id
$headline->headline_as_id( $bool )
A bool value that determines whether the URL will be the unique identifier or the if an MD5 checksum of the RSS title will be used instead.
(when the URL doesn't provide absolute uniqueness or changes within the RSS feed)
This is used in extreme cases when URLs aren't always unique to new healines (Use Perl Journals) and when URLs change within a RSS feed
(www.debianplanet.org / debianplanet.org / search.cpan.org,search.cpan.org:80)
$headline->timestamp
$headline->timestamp( Time::HiRes::time() )
A high resolution timestamp that is set using Time::HiRes::time() when the object is created.
