Urban Dictionary WordOfTheDay.tcl (Currently: 1.0)

[BeBoo]

I modified perpleXa's Urban Dictionary script a little to grab the word of the day from the site. This script also allows you to go back a day or two up to 100 days. Let me know if you have any problems.

Download perpleXa's Original Urban Dictionary Script here. (Currently 1.8)

You will also need perpleXa's fsck package to run both scripts. You can find that here

You might actually want to send such changes to Perplexa and ask if she (or he) wants to add them to their script, since they are still actively maintaining them afaik. It's poor form to take someone elses script and re-release them without at least asking.

I am releasing it under the following disclaimer that appears in her/his original script:

Code: Select all

# Redistribution, with or without modification, are permitted provided
# that redistributions retain the above copyright notice, this condition
# and the following disclaimer.

Also, I am not sure that s/he is still updating it as the a link to it has been removed off her/his website.

I will attempt to contact him/her anyway.
