I like to track some directories to see if there are new source tarballs added and subsequently download them automatically. I can do that with FTP sites using my own scripts, but processing HTML pages is different for every page/site and would require custom processing for each different page and directory.
I know it is hard to do while using linux basic tools (lynx, curl, wget) and bash scripting, but if someone has a pointer, then please let me know. By the way, they say that perl and LWP might do, but I do a lot of programming in various languages but not with perl or python.
Regards, Frans. What about using rsync ?
