Stark raving mad


l.m.orchard: What horror! Perl calling upon a Python script?! Have you gone mad, sir?!  Chuckle.  I don't think he knows the depth of my depravity.  Here's a small taste.

P.S.  This post was entered in Radio, extracted using a batch file via some UserTalk, parsed using Perl, cleaned up by tidy and a C program of my own design, transferred to intertwingly using scp, and then ssh triggers unpacking on the destination site, where a shell script takes over: invokes indexing using Jakarta's Lucene, and then a python script pings weblogs.com and blo.gs.  The final product is viewable via three different versions of blosxom.

Yup, I'm a sick puppy.
