Cricket Scoreboard -kde desktop
hi,
i made a small script to put a scoreboard of current cricket match.. here is the script
it requires the following software.
–> links or elinks ( a command line web browser)
–> Kdialog dialog utility in kde (generally default in all linux dists)
score.sh
#!/bin/sh
url="http://www.cricbuzz.com/livecricketscore/2007/2007_IND_PAK/IND_PAK_NOV30_DEC04/commentary.html"
#this needs to be changed to current match page on cricbuzz.com
while [ 1 ]
do
links -dump $url > dump
# info=`cat dump | awk -f score.awk | tail -3`
info=`head -n 10 dump`
kdialog --passivepopup "$info" 10
sleep 60
done
there it is .. try and enjoy.
