I have idea for script but it seems pretty kinky.
I would like to check forum posts in various forums daily for new posts in that thread.
Hard part is to compare old and new thread some how, maybe script should take html only between x and z and create checksum?
StefanK has a nice little app in ScriptBuilders.net called MacScripterWatcher that does that for these forums. Perhaps he’ll tell us how to do it for others.
I’d like to, but there is no common “algorithm” to gather the information.
You have to write a routine for each forum and it works only, if the information can be read by curl
There also a widget to this place. The link is broken at Apple but I found it a the developers site.
