Don’t know how many of you out there are webcomics readers like me, but since I’m used to follow quite a large number of them, I desperately love a thing like dailystrip, that strips for me a list of links to favourites comics on a local HTML page I point my browser to each day (the command for downloading/creating the page runs from cron).
Since the project seems to be quite unmaintained, the .def list of all strips and webcomics is starting to get outdated, and it’s starting to miss some new comics that are spawning out there.
Today I found myself lacking a proper strip entry for Cyanide and Happiness, that since today I happened to be reading by RSS feed.
I opened a terminal, I wrote down a couple of lines, and here it comes working and ready to be shared with the world (but I’m sure the world is actually quite un-interested in it… anyway) an addition to my .def file for this particular comic:
strip explosm
name Cyanide and Happyness
homepage http://www.explosm.net/comics
type search
searchpattern <img .+?src=”(http://www.explosm.net/db/files/Comics/.+?/.+?png)”
provides latest
end
It seems to work flawlessly, any feedback on it is well accepted :)
