well if you do will be kind enough to help im sure that would be very kind of you.
I like the look of liferea...its easy and simple. I think its best to maybe avoid writing on this thread for fear of overposting! Im not apt in programming so i dont think id be able to write a script for it. but i know what i want it to do i was also looking into a symbian app that would automatically switch on the bluetooth at certain times...which would/could in turn trigger the rss feed ! So where do we start?and how can i help you in this? 2008/5/28 Robert McWilliam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > On Wed, May 28, 2008 at 02:53:29PM +0100, Javad Ayaz wrote: > > Are there any Rss readers that will beam info to a bluetooth phone !!! > > knewsticker / akregator / other KDE application > > I don't know of any apps that do this already (which doesn't mean much > since I've never looked for it), but it shouldn't be hard to write the > functionality yourself.
