gnome-blog

I'm testing out gnome-blog.... Not entirely sure what all these things do....

I'll post this entry and see if it does what I'm hoping it'll do.

Update: it sort of did what I expected. Gnome-blog seems to wrap everything in <p> stuff. It seems it handles the html for you which is nice, I guess. I had to go in manually and edit the resulting blog entry, though.

A friend of mine noticed that ?flav=rss does not tell which encoding is used (which could be a potential problem if you're not using UTF-8)

I should really check with CVS (yadayadayada) and produce a diff, but I'm lazy to begin with...

./Pyblosxom/renderers/blosxom.py:47
  'head' : """<?xml version="1.0" encoding="$blog_encoding" ?>\n<!-- name="generator" content="$pyblosxom_name/$pyblosxom_version" -->\n<!DOCTYPE rss PUBLIC "-//Netscape Communications//DTD RSS 0.91//EN" "http://my.netscape.com/publish/formats/rss-0.91.dtd">\n\n<rss version="0.91">\n  <channel>\n  <title>$blog_title $pi_da $pi_mo $pi_yr</title>\n  <link>$url</link>\n  <description>$blog_description</description>\n  <language>$blog_language</language>\n""",

Thanks for the heads-up.  I checked in your suggested fix just now.


Post a new comment:

Three things:

  1. New comments get placed in a "draft" status and will NOT show up on the site until I explicitly approve it. Sometimes that happens within 24 hours.
  2. I reserve the right to reject/remove inappropriate comments.
  3. Sometimes I'll reply to a comment directly in email--so make sure your email address is correct.

If you can't for some reason post a comment, send me an email: willg at bluesock dot org.

Your e-mail address (this doesn't get displayed to anyone--sometimes I'll reply directly to you):
