Laurens has updated a script for rewriting links in BBC News RSS feeds to point each item to the printable version of each article.

Click here (http://laurens.typepad.com/sunrise/files/bbcnews-script.zip) to download the script. The following installation instruction is straight from Laurens:

Extract the file to the "scripts" folder inside the Sunrise installation directory. This will overwrite the existing "bbcnews.js" script. To configure


Pick an RSS feed. For example the Front Page.
Create a new document in Sunrise using the New Item Wizard.
After creating the document, open the document's Properties and switch to the "Advanced" tab.
Under the "Script" header select "File" and fill in the name of the script file "bbcnews.js".

Alternatively, you can copy predefined feeds from the Showcase SDL.

Attaching scripts to documents is indeed somewhat cumbersome. Sunrise's successor will have a better mechanism for configuring and updating scripts.
