Python script to retrieve articles from the CRI website

[imron]

Heh, these were all things I'd fixed on my own local version but never got around to posting on here. Anyway, I've now posted an updated version. You can download it from the original post. Let me know how it goes.

Ok, I've just made a couple of updates to this, most notably a new script called crilatest.py

This script will compile all the articles from a given broadcast into one html file that also contains an embedded media player to play the broadcast.

Mostly this was done because Tk's unicode support seems to be horribly broken on the Mac (which I now use) making it effectively useless, plus doing it this way provides a convenient way to play the broadcast from the same file as the articles.

See the main post for usage and a screen shot.

imron:

I have tried the last version of your CRIsucker and it works beautifully. What you have written here is a very useful tool. Thank you very much!

Imron, I *do* realize that this is a 5 year old thread, but is crisucker still maintained/usable/useful nowadays?

[imron]

Nope, the CRI website stopped provided transcripts probably about 3-4 years ago now.

Too bad. Thanks anyway.
