pluck-comics

I've been using Plucker to add web content to my Palm Pilot, and have enjoyed the comics-plucker app that is included with the source code download.

I've found it's pretty easy to add new ones comics.

The Venus Envy sample is a working template for adding Keenspace comics to the list. At some point I may go so far as to ass Keenspace support and submit a patch!

Append the following lines to the end of the file other.comics.list to add the corresponding comics:

comic_list.append({
'name': 'kevinandkell',
'page': 'http://kevinandkell.com/',
'expr': "kk\d+\.gif",
'suff': '.gif',
'base': 'http://kevinandkell.com/2004/strips/',
'title': 'Kevin and Kell'})

comic_list.append({
'name': 'venusenvy',
'page': 'http://venusenvy.keenspace.com/',
'expr': "\d+\.jpg",
'suff': '.jpg',
'base': 'http://venusenvy.keenspace.com/comics/',
'refr': 'http://venusenvy.keenspace.com/comics/',
'title': 'VenusEnvy'})

comic_list.append({
'name': 'somethingpositive',
'page': 'http://somethingpositive.net',
'expr': "sp\d+\.gif",
'suff': '.gif',
'base': 'http://somethingpositive.net/arch/',
'title': 'SomethingPositive'})
