Description kstailey 2004-04-09 05:20:13 UTC 
New port of RSS client that serves HTML which a local web browser can
view.  Bind(2)s to 127.0.0.1 by default so remote exploits are only
possible when users reconfigure to accept remote clients (and they get
warnings along the way.)

Normally AmphetaDesk wants to run out of its source code directory.
This port suffers from putting non-perl items under sub directories
of site_perl in an effort to avoid having to patch the code in
too many places to use alternate directories.

There are patches in this port that enable a non-root
user to run by putting configuration files and logs under
~/.AmphetaDesk/  The startup script wrapper refuses
to be run as root as well.

How-To-Repeat: N/A
