RDF Ticker v0.95 by torsius

This plugin can display many different RDF Feeds in a small 
space by switching between feeds at a user specified rate.

NEW IN THIS VERSION

-customizable update time for streams 
  (not per feed, but global, if you want individual, 
   request in forum, i'm sure i can work it out)
-more html symbol's added (those things suck)
-rdf/rss stream image support (check out the sample config)
-maybe other stuff? I forgot about releasing this version, 
  so I can't remember what I did :)


NEW IN LAST VERSION

-fixed a small file reading problem for HUGE rdf streams
-added an html symbol replacer thing, for special symbols in rdf files


FEATURES

-Virtually unlimited number of RDF feeds possible
-Caches downloaded feeds to minimize abusive behaviour
-Hyperlink support
-Can specify switch interval
-Has smart internet detection (for all you modem users out there)
-Customizable number of headlines displayed

USAGE

This plugin reads the RDF feeds you want it to through a configuration file
located in the same folder as the plugin itself

The format in which you tell the plugin what feeds to display is simple.

feed#=USER CHOSEN TITLE|URL TO THE RDF FEED

you simply put those lines in the specified section in the configuration file,
and the plugin grabs the files, and keeps them cached, and updates them nicely.

you label the feeds incrememtally, and tell the plugin how many feeds you have added when you're done

You tell the plugin the switching interval by Changing the value of of "ChangeEvery"
 - the value specified is in seconds, so to switch every 2 minutes, a value of 120 would be correct

CONFIG EXAMPLE

If I had 2 feeds I wanted to display, switching every minute, here is what my configuration file would look like

	[Ticker Options]
	NumStreams=2
	ChangeEvery=60

	[Feed List]
	feed1=DivX|http://www.theisonews.com/rss/releases-divx.rdf
	feed2=Slashdot|http://slashdot.org/slashdot.rdf

Notice NumStreams has been set to 2, because I have 2 streams listed
Also, I have named the feeds 'feed1' and 'feed2'
always start with 'feed1' and increment from there

ADDING TO YOUR SAMURIZE CONFIGURATION

Making samurize display the contents of the feeds is a snap.
I have included a config that shows 5 headlines and the title of the feed

You simply pick what headline number you want for each meter, and put as many as you like
- be sure to check the "allow linkage" if you want to be able to click on the headlines
  - when you check "allow linkage" you must put a %l in the link box, 
    to tell samurize to use the link the function outputs

ENJOY!

if you have any questions, jump on the samurize forums, and ask away!
