News, CNN.com and the Washington Post are supported, but other feeds that point to articles with place names might work as well.Note: The Python Imaging Library needs to be installed for favicon display to work. Circles are used by default if PIL is not found. You must have wxPython installed in order to use the GUI. Requirements: · Python 2.3 or later. · xplanet 1.0 or later. · OSXplanet What's New in This Release: · RSS-Planet now has a standalone mode where it only runs once when it is called, creates the marker file, and then exits. · This is useful for easier integration with an existing xplanet setup.
