ANNOUNCE: NewzPoint v1.1
jake...@home.com
Good question...I will keep it short as the best way to explain it, is
to try it out!!!
* It is a tabbed layout display of multiple web pages using a configuration
file to automaticlly generate the display.
* Refresh rates are set for each page to keep them updated.
* Change the page location or the refresh rates on the fly.
* Ability to generate html pages (used in the comics page)
What does this really mean to me...
* Keep the webpages as current as your want, quickly accessible, using a
minimal ammount of space
* It pulls content from the web (not content pusher)
Requirements
* Tcl/Tk version 8.3.4 (or greater) or TclKit
* Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 (or greater)
* Microsoft Windows 95 (or greater)
Installation
* Download links available from the Tcl Wiki page on NewzPoint
http://mini.net/tcl/NewzPoint
* If you have Tcl/Tk installed:
1. download newzpoint.zip
2. unzip the file (keep the tree structure)
3. run the newzpoint.tcl file
* You just want to run NewzPoint (and Tcl/Tk is not installed):
1. download newzpoint_tclkit.zip
2. download TclKit for Windows if not already installed
3. unzip all the files to a directory
4. run the newzpoint.bat file
Invoked by:
wish83.exe newzpoint.tcl
or
(double click) newzpoint.tcl
or
tclkit newzpoint.bin
Configuration
Current version is 1.1
Changes in this version
* fixed the front comic page to correctly generate image location
* added support for ini file updates when run with tclkit
NOTE:
To add/delete pages (currently only by hand) see newzpoint.ini file for
more information (not generated untill you have run newzpoint one time)
