Proposed by
Eoghann Irving
on 10/06/1997.
Status
Under development by Eoghann Irving
since 02/05/1998.

Short description
An Amiga based push client
Proposed name
Push-Pull
Full description
Essentially an offline Web browser, but with a database of web sites to check and a scheduler. Push-Pull would check these web sites at preset intervals and if the page had been updated it would download the new page, graphics and all. It should be fully GUI driven making it easy to schedule the retrieval of each page and add new pages to the database.

No. You need a database of sites to check; a way of entering new URLS and removing old ones; the ability to specify different times for the checking of each URL (some might need checking every day, others less often). Ideally it would also let you know about any new subpages and ask whether to fetch them as well.

Shouldn't an Arexx script be able to handle this?
