Long:

   Ever wanted to see what was new on the news sites without cranking up your
browser?
   Spend a lot of time in IRC?

   Then, this is the script for you.

   assign this script and the arguement for your favorite news source(s) to an
FKey,
   and have instant (and private) news right in your AmIRC window.

Changes:

   - (1.1) Added AmigaForever.com's RSS Feed
   - More NewsFeed Options (Including DE Versions, check Usage!)
   - No longer broadcasts to the channel

Installation:
   Copy the script to your AmIRC/Rexx/ directory.

Usage:
   Type: /rx ircnews.amirx ARG

   Where "ARG" is for your favorite news-site (based on RSS feeds)

   -------------------------------
   NewsFeeds

   -------------------------------

   From your AmIRC prefs, you can assign this script with different arguments to
   F-keys.

================================================================================
Bugs:

   Amiga.org has changed (removed?) their RSS feed, so it no longer works.

Suggestions? Comments? Another RSS Newsfeed? Send to Targhan at MorphZone.org

Legal:

      Use at your own risk.  Should your mates beat you with sticks
      for over-usage of annoying scripts, don't whine to me.  No
      responsability is taken for loss of data either.

      /*
      ** public broadcasting now removed,
      ** change it at the risk of kickban ;-P
      */

      FreeWare:

      You may copy this script freely as long as this original archive
      remains intact.  Magazines, etc, are required to contact the
      author before including the script on any CD. (As if they'de
      want this cheesy script?!)

      Again, the author takes no responsibility for abuse of this
      script ;-)
