   That's true. although as I'm in a Termux session on my Android phone, I'm   
   unsure what sort of mischief could ensue.   
    g0> Alternatively you could use any sort of script that can get RSS and then   
    g0> post them as a text file into a message base using MUTIL or as bulletins.   
      
   That's something I'm looking at.  Looking around I saw some Mystic add-ond   
   that took like the top 3 articles from CNN or Fox and posted them. So I see   
   an idea is there.    
      
    g0> Or you could use Mystic Python and create your own RSS reader or just   
    g0> use it to   
    g0>    
    g0> download and post data to a message base.  Its only a couple of lines of   
    g0> code to do this sort of stuff in Mystic Python. IE:   
    g0>    
    g0> import feedparser   
    g0>    
    g0> feed = feedparser.parse("https://finance.yahoo.coim/rss/");   
    g0>    
    g0> for entry in feed.entries:   
    g0>       
       
   I hadn't considered that option. I have looked a little bit at the Mystic   
    MPL. but I'm out of practice with writing code, so it's slow going.   
      
    g0> I believe there are some projects I think that do this sort of thing   
    g0> already for Mystic.  They will offer up news articles to browse and so   
    g0> on, but I am not   
    g0> sure where to get them they're just things I've seen before.   
    g0>    
       
   The one's I saw I found with a Google search.  I'll probably grab them just   
   to see if I can figure out how they are doing what they do.   
      
   New OS, New BBS software, and trying to customize when years out of   
   programming practice is probably pushing myself a bit much, but it's somehow   
   therapeutical with all of its frustration.
