Hi,
the current Handelsblatt recipe is broken for quite some time. When trying to fix it I found out that the article structure has changed fundamentally, so I had to write a completely new one.
It would of course be great if the old
handelsblatt.recipe could be replaced by this new code.
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env python2

__copyright__ = '2016, Aimylios'
'''
handelsblatt.com
