(APT sources for Debian available. Source code with install script for other distributions..)<br /><br />The main reason I developed this was that I wanted to view images inline. While LJ's feed aggregator does this, it has a "score" tracker, which limits the number of feeds you can track.<br /><br />Also, I periodically run it at my server (via crontab) and set the output file as a publicly accessible one. This way, I access the latest feeds wherever I am.<br /><br />The present version (0.6.1) is production-quality and features a pretty efficient hand-written parser. More details <a href="http://hyperfeeder.amitng.net">here</a>.<br /><br />If you decide to use it, do send me feature requests and bug reports at &lt;hyperfeeder at amitng dot net&gt;.<br /><br />For the impatient:<br /><ul><li>Debian users: Add one of the following to sources.list . <ul><br /> <li>For stable/testing:<br /> <code>deb <a href="http://www.amitng.net">http://www.amitng.net</a> debian stable<br /> deb-src <a href="http://www.amitng.net">http://www.amitng.net</a> debian stable</code></li><br /> <li>For unstable:<br /> <code>deb <a href="http://www.amitng.net">http://www.amitng.net</a> debian unstable<br /> deb-src <a href="http://www.amitng.net">http://www.amitng.net</a> debian unstable</code></li></ul></li><br /><li>Other distributions: Download and run <i>install</i> script<ul><br /> <li><a href="http://hyperfeeder.amitng.net/hyperfeeder_0.6.1_stdc++5.tar.gz">hyperfeeder_0.6.1_stdc++5.tar.gz</a> (19 kB) - For libstdc++5.<br /> <code><strong>MD5</strong>: dfe3e417d00d8ddc7dad7b4ba01e8cb0</code></li><br /> <li><a href="http://hyperfeeder.amitng.net/hyperfeeder_0.6.1_stdc++2.10.tar.gz">hyperfeeder_0.6.1_stdc++2.10.tar.gz</a> (19 kB) - For libstdc++ 2.10.<br /> <code><strong>MD5</strong>: f8f73abc6e8582170e2f5535132dc1c7</code></ul></li></ul> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:amitng:12233 2003-07-01T11:49:14Z 2003-07-01T11:58:26Z Please welcome <span class='ljuser ljuser-name_yathin' lj:user='yathin' style='white-space: nowrap;'><a href='http://yathin.livejournal.com/profile'><img src='http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif' alt='[info]' width='17' height='17' style='vertical-align: bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' /></a><a href='http://yathin.livejournal.com/'><b>yathin</b></a></span>.. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:amitng:10026 2003-05-13T10:45:45Z 2003-05-13T10:50:00Z Please welcome Jayadevan aka <span class='ljuser ljuser-name_jugga' lj:user='jugga' style='white-space: nowrap;'><a href='http://jugga.livejournal.com/profile'><img src='http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif' alt='[info]' width='17' height='17' style='vertical-align: bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' /></a><a href='http://jugga.livejournal.com/'><b>jugga</b></a></span>.

Dunno how I managed with RPM all this time.<br /><br /> Yes, I am running RHL 7.3 AND apt-get on it.. Get it <a href="http://apt4rpm.sourceforge.net">here</a>.<br /><br /> You might get a circular dependency error between gated and zebra when installing packages. Do a rpm -e on gated.. Apt repository lists are at the same site.. And whoa! It's just breath-taking. :D urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:amitng:3081 2002-08-29T14:48:00Z 2002-08-29T14:48:00Z Played pool for 1.5 hrs with <span class='ljuser ljuser-name_mrinal' lj:user='mrinal' style='white-space: nowrap;'><a href='http://mrinal.livejournal.com/profile'><img src='http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif' alt='[info]' width='17' height='17' style='vertical-align: bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' /></a><a href='http://mrinal.livejournal.com/'><b>mrinal</b></a></span> and <span class='ljuser ljuser-name_snagappa' lj:user='snagappa' style='white-space: nowrap;'><a href='http://snagappa.livejournal.com/profile'><img src='http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif' alt='[info]' width='17' height='17' style='vertical-align: bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' /></a><a href='http://snagappa.livejournal.com/'><b>snagappa</b></a></span> today..
