sfeed_frames1

Usage

Overview

sfeed_frames formats feed data (TSV) from sfeed(1) from stdin or for each file to HTML. It writes HTML files for the frameset to the current directory. If no file arguments are specified and so the data is read from stdin then the menu.html file is not written.

Items with a timestamp from the last day compared to the system time at the time of formatting are counted and marked as new. Items are marked as new using a bold markup. This value might be overridden through environment variables.

There is an example style.css stylesheet file included in the distribution.

Files written

index.html

The main HTML file referencing the files for the frames: items.html and menu.html.

items.html

The HTML file of the items frame which contains all the item links to the feeds.

menu.html

The HTML file of the menu frame which contains navigation "anchor" links (like "#feedname") to the feed names in items.html.

Environment

SFEED_NEW_AGE

Overwrite the maximum age in seconds to mark feeds as new. By default this is 86400, which equals one day.

Exit status

The sfeed_frames utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
