Another day, another script using the data from (the now infamous) bleb.org! This one scans the TV listings for two days hence, and emails you a list of all the programmes you might be interested in. The list of search terms, along with your email address, must be entered manually (this isn't Tivo!) but everything else is automatic. Download the tvreminder tarball archive.

There's only one line of set-up you need to do to install it on your system, and that's only required if you're running it automatically with cron. That is, the 'cd' line which indicates the directory in which all the scripts live. Simple!

The archive's readme gives the full working description, but if you're interesting in doing tail recursion in XSL, or want to see case-insensitive searches in XSL, then I suggest you read this code for solutions.
