I don't think you'd like this skip function for comics as much as you think you will. To read a week of a single strip would require you to download 7 different ebooks and open every one as you'll only get one strip in each ebook.

Really, it's mostly the political cartoons that bug me. They aren't daily, so I keep getting strips from months back, and the same ones showing up over and over ... well, it gets old after I've hit it for the third or fourth time. So I think maybe figuring out how to pull a date out and then restricting the date to a reasonable length of time might be the better solution. Again, that's still beyond my abilities.
I got the script to sort of work on my Yakima Valley newspaper article. I'm going to play a little more with it and see if it's something I like or not. Mostly I was concerned that I couldn't get it to work at all. It's not something I'd want in a standard recipe, but there are a couple of recipes it might be useful for, if I can figure out how to put it in.
