NAME

hamsoft - client for http://radio.linux.org.au

SYNOPSIS

hamsoft

DESCRIPTION

Hamsoft is a reader for new hamradio linux software at radio.linux.org.au. When you select an entry in the list and click on read, the link will be opened in a mozilla window. Mozilla has to be running already.

You need to have gtk and libgtk-perl installed on your system, this comes with most distributions.

If you leave the program idle, it will refresh every 'REFRESH_TIMEOUT' seconds. You might also have to set the $PROXY string and the path to your netscape executable in the configuration section of the script.

REMARKS

Hamsoft is a hacked up script from Alex Shnitman <[email protected]>, who wrote 'slashes.pl' for reading slashdot news, I fixed a couple of things and wrote support for the hamsoft db.

Please send your comments/wishlist to the hamsoft maintainer: [email protected].
