Set your RSS reader to download [noparse]http://www.tugbbs.com/forums/external.php[/noparse]
I just learned that you can specify which forums to download RSS listings from by specifying a
forumids parameter, like so:
[noparse]
http://www.tugbbs.com/forums/external.php?forumids=1,2,3,4
(note, no spaces)
[/noparse]
The above would download listings from forums 1, 2, 3, and 4.
To discover the number of any particular forum, find a link to the forum in question (like on the forum list on the board's home page) and check its URL. The end of the URL will be f=X where X is the forum number.
By default you will receive the most recent 25 posts. You can change this by adding a
count parameter, like so:
[noparse]
http://www.tugbbs.com/forums/external.php?count=XX[/noparse]
where XX is the desired number of posts.
If you want to specify both parameters, connect them by an &, like so:
[noparse]
http://www.tugbbs.com/forums/external.php?count=35&forumids=10[/noparse]
The above would list the most recent 35 posts from this About TUG BBS forum (forum 10).
Note that you need to use a program that understands RSS feeds for this. If you try to use those URLs in a browser that doesn't understand RSS feeds the RSS formatting commands will be displayed, which will make the text nearly impossible to read.
