Turning off planet

For a while now, the last four or five months at least, I have been using planetplanet for RSS and Atom aggregation, or in english, reading a bunch of websites on one page. Planet is a bit of a hog, mainly in the disk acresses. This is a bit of a problem on hades, whose disk's aren't wonderful.

Dan has been nagging me to use rawdog for a while, so this morning it floated to the top of the todo list, and stealing his config and one line of shell gave me a sorta working instance with the same feeds:

grep "^\[h" ~/usr/planet/lupin/config.ini | sed "s/\[//" | sed "s/\]//"
| awk '{printf("feed 1h %s\n", $1)}' >> .rawdog/config

I'm going to leave it for a bit to see if I like it, and to sort how I want it laid out, but its now in cronand planet isn't, so the worse abuser of hades should be gone.
