I have the initial version of Java RSS2Book almost done!

Java RSS2Book is a Java version of geekraver's RSS2Book program that converts RSS feeds to PDFs suited for the Sony Reader.

I am a beginner coder, so don't hurt my little spaghetti code!

The file included is a Java source (java 5) file that needs to be compiled.

It requires as a dependency:

http://informa.sourceforge.net/

and HTMLDoc must be installed. Only tested on Mac OS X 10.4 so far.

Any feedback from Java coders would be welcome (including new code!).

Just to let you know that java rss2book will have another user/supporter/early adoptor - when its released. I only learnt java in university many years ago, and now I don't even know how to compile your initial code on Mac OS X 10.4. Can you show me how to do that? (I got htmldoc installed)

Noads,
Don't worry, I will have a compiled version out soon enough!
