Hey,

I released version 1.8-21 of pyplucker. Check it out here.

pyplucker can be used to created offline versions of websites, so that you can carry them with you and read them offline.
I use it every day to create my daily newspaper. It has no gui yet, so you need xterm & nano or vi.

e.g. i use these lines to get my daily news:

Code:

#!/bin/sh

plucker-build -f golem_news -p /media/mmc1 http://www.golem.de/pda/pdahome.html

plucker-build -f heise_news -p /media/mmc1 http://www.heise.de/pda/newsticker

the created files can be read by the excellent FBReader.

hi loki:
For your guide I initially got the following error when running the script you posted:

Code:

Error: Pluckerhome (/home/user/.plucker) does not exist or isn't a directory

So I went into Xterm and created a .plucker directory. Thereafter it ran fine and I was able to read them in FBReader.

This will come in very handy!
Thanks, loki

Any chance of getting a version compiled for the Nokia 770 under IT2006? This would be the answer to all of my problems and return my tablet to daily use. :)

Just install the bora package from here: http://maemo.lancode.de/?path=./bora/binary
(The click-to-install link isn't working on http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2006/pyplucker/)
