ok i only just discovered this on WPress, thanks to my freind Simon i had it al ready to go but just needed to activate it in the plugins editor. It needs a word press api key which you get by signing up on the wordpress site.
Feeds from my blog
Have been waiting for the launch of our new exciting blogs on the guardian site, e.g. Science Blog and in the meantime working on this, my blog. I want to be able to feed some of my posts to the thoughtworks blogspace, blogs.thoughtworks.com and have discovered that wordpress ROCKS at this. you simply put the category name and /feeds at the end, e.g. : feed://jimbarritt.com/non-random/category/agile/feed sweet as!
So I will create a new category called thoughtblog and then just assign this to each post i want to include!
nice.
Echo the date and time in a windows batch file
MY GOD!
you would think this was easy eh?
I found this which states “setting the date and time into a variable in dos is relatively easy“.
hmmm..
here it is (this example is a wrapper for good ol’ ant) :
@echo off
call ..\\tools\\ant\\bin\\ant -f r2build\\build.xml %*
FOR /F "TOKENS=*" %%A IN ('DATE/T') DO SET today=%%A
FOR /F "TOKENS=*" %%A IN ('TIME/T') DO SET now=%%A
@echo.
@echo Build completed on %today% at %now%
@echo.
