Some cool links

[Charles Hallenbeck]

Greetings -

When I have located a 'cool link' I will sometimes use the Lynx 'd'
(download) command instead of pressing 'enter' to select the link. That
often gives me just a small one-line file containing the actual link to
the audio stream. I have placed that link in an executable script in
"/usr/local/bin" with an easy to remember name for later use. Here are two
of my favorites:

#!/bin/bash
# "npr-news" for latest five minute summary
trplayer http://www.npr.org/news2a.ram


#!/bin/bash
# file "wftw" - Word For The Wise, fresh info nearly every day
trplayer pnm://realaudio.global2000.net/publicradio/wftw.rm

My appreciation to Matt for his excellent work.

Chuck.
