2"""This is SlashDot 1.2
3
4 It's the obligatory Slashdot.org headlines reader that
5any modern widget set/library must have in order to be taken
6seriously :-)
7
8 Usage is quite simple; wxSlash attempts to download the
9'ultramode.txt' file from http://slashdot.org, which
10contains the headlines in a computer friendly format. It
11then displays said headlines in a wxWindows list control.
12
13 You can read articles using either Python's html library
14or an external browser. Uncheck the 'browser->internal' menu
15item to use the latter option. Use the settings dialog box
16to set which external browser is started.
17
18 This code is available under the wxWindows license, see
19elsewhere. If you modify this code, be aware of the fact
20that slashdot.org's maintainer, CmdrTaco, explicitly asks
21'ultramode.txt' downloaders not to do this automatically
22more than twice per hour. If this feature is abused,
23CmdrTaco may remove the ultramode file completely and that
24will make a *lot* of people unhappy.
25
26 I want to thank Alex Shnitman whose slashes.pl
27(Perl/GTK) script gave me the idea for this applet.
28
29 Have fun with it,
