Ideas

I'm working on a little app I call RAF ( Radar and Folio ), mostly as
a ruby upskilling exercise, but maybe of use when its finished.

It uses Fx and its purpose is to aggregate, filter and summarise all
sorts of information, sort of a dashboard.

Currently I've 2 notifications
1. Email, checks for email received from 'special' people, returns a
count of mundane vs special emails.
2. Worklog updates, checks your worklog text file is updated every hour.

I've also though of rss filter on particular words.

I'm interested in peoples ideas for others.

How about scoring and filtering posts from multiple RSS feeds?

This sounds nice, I have been starting to write something like that a few
months ago, but web-based, and lost interest in it, mainly because there
were other things to do. A real desktop version is probably the better idea.
(As a side note, it was called e-over-h, guess why ;-))

I'd certainly like a command-line tool to add a notification. One could do
things like

    cd largeproject; make && raf-notify "Build done"

then. This gets especially useful if possible over the network...

Happy hacking,

I have the feeling this is some kind of drb/Rinda redone, maybe it can be of inspiration.
Anyway if arf-notify is given please provide a raf-select tool too, something like
raf-select number=5 topic=build

.oO(Why didn't I notice this sooner...)
You are trivializing the exercise. :slight_smile:

something like
raf-select number=5 topic=build

Sounds cool, I probably (c|sh)ould start hacking on my code again...
