code-parser (Re: Using code posted on PerlMonks)

I like it.

An idea occured to me (rare occasion):
vroom could have a link "view code" with any post
containing the <code> and </code>-tags.

The link would simply point to a CGI script (your script)
that parses all the <code>-parts of the post and
displays each <code> entry (seperated by a line ('=' x 50 or so))
in a plain text-file.

Am I making sense?

Well, I was thinking something along the lines of providing a code download link. However, I'm not sure of the bandwidth and processing considerations that would be involved. I understand what you're saying and it could provide a means of viewing all code sections in a thread on one page. I suppose it's another idea that will be kicked around. Cheers, Ovid	[reply]
