1 nstv 0.2 (Now Showing TV)
2 Copyright 2008 Robert Vally (GPL)
6 nstv is a simple Python script which I use to fetch, parse and report on
7 TV listings (only tested against NZ free-to-air TV) and is designed to function
8 entirely from the command line.
10 It achieves this by fetching raw HTML from the listing source and then using
11 3 simple regular expressions to organise the data. A few command line
12 parameters enable you to format this data and display it in an easy to read
15 It is therefore technically usable for any publically available TV listing by
16 only altering a few settings. However, more work and testing needs to be done
17 to make this seemless.
20 * Fetches listing data
21 * Reports on listings in a easy to read way
24 * Only supports New Zealand free-to-air scheduling at the moment
25 * A few other minor issues
