What is rssparser.lisp?
A Web-to-RSS parser in Common Lisp. This software was written because a disappointing number of websites still does not have an RSS or Atom feed so you could subscribe to their updates. The script tries to find new articles on any website according to given criteria (CSS selectors) and parse them into a valid RSS feed so you can subscribe to them in your usual RSS feed reader.
Comments and Reviews
Confusing to most to download and set up
Suggestions to improve the process are welcome. (Disclosure: I'm the author.)
I like the idea of parsing websites to RSS. The only lisp programming I know of is for Autocad (being in that field). The average person doesn't likely know where to begin with a lisp program these days. The first thing I would want to know is where to point the program. Are lisp routines commonly added to RSS feeder programs? Is it command line? How would I get this thing started/ what program would I need?
