ChinnoDog | What is the best tool for monitoring a web page for changes? | 18:29 |
waltman | I wrote one in perl when I was in grad school. Let me see if I still have the code... | 18:32 |
ChinnoDog | I thought the answer as going to be a web site that blasts notifications but a command line notifier is just as good I suppose. | 18:33 |
jthan | ChinnoDog: is it just html, a static page? | 18:34 |
waltman | I think it was just a simple think I ran as a cronjob | 18:36 |

waltman | Very old code: https://gist.github.com/waltman/51bba29f97499617af0f14f81107bdfb | 18:48 |
