in reply to bivnn.cgi -- an alternate interface to newest nodes

Very cool...
The only suggestion I would make is this: I prefer to have each link from the generated page open in a new window. I don't have a clue unfortunately how to do this, otherwise I would submit a diff. All in all though, a VERY handy way to catch up. Thanks!

Very funny Scotty... Now PLEASE beam down my PANTS!

    Nice suggestion! I'll add that in as a user configurable option for the next release. It's a really easy thing to do on your own installation, though. Simply add a target parameter to any links you want to open a new window....
    For instance, you could modify a line in generate_category_html() to be: 
    $html .= qq{<A HREF="$PMURLINDEX?node_id=$nodeid" TARGET="pm">$title</
+A>};
