pyRssReader ================= Introduction ================= pyRssReader is on open source and free program developed with python v. 2.6.5 and Qt libraries v. 4.6.2. pyRssReader is used to read the rss feeds from the websites.

I have tested pyRssReader with python 2.7, I have also tested the program with some linux distros, win xp and win 7. To run pyRssReader you must have installed python at least version 2.6.5. You can get python at http://www.python.org/download Note for windows users: Windows users must to install pywin32, a Python Extensions for Windows. You can get it from http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/ pywin32 needs to run python versions 2.6+ Docs ================= See docs folder Run executable ================= If you downloaded the executable version for Linux (.tar.gz) or Windows (.zip), you must extract the archive where you prefer, enter in the folder pyRssReader and do double click the executable of pyRssReader Run from source ================= If you downloaded the source files of pyRssReader (.src.zip), you must extract the archive where you prefer, open a shell, go to your /pyRssReader (Linux) or \pyRssReader (Windows) and type python pyRssReader.py If you have errors is important you have installed: PyQT4 http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/software/pyqt/download lxml http://codespeak.net/lxml/ feedparser http://www.feedparser.org Maybe windows users must add the PyQT4 to python path in this way: - open with a text editor the file \pyRssReader\pyRssReader.py - below the line import sys (line 3) add the line sys.path.append('\Python26\Lib\site-packages\PyQt4') Credits ================= pyRssReader is developed and maintained by: Giacomo Campanelli < giakcamp [at] gmail.com > License ================= pyRssReader is licensed under the GPL v.2
