Page Watcher Description

Opern source Perl script that will notify you of page changes Page Watcher is a simple perl script that will, when used in conjunction with a scheduling program such as cron, send a notification via email when a web page that is being watched has been changed.The Page Watcher script is unique in a couple respects. The first is that it uses a configuration file to identify the pages to be watched. This configuration file allows for default values to be established and to permit overrides of the defaults on a page by page basis. If you want to get notified at work for most updates you can set the default to notify your work email address. But if there is a page that is of interest to someone else, you can override the email notification address for that particular page.Page Watcher is also unique in that it can easily watch only the links on a page for change instead of the whole page. This can prove very useful for sites that contain both dynamic content and download links.If you are only interested in the fact that there is a new release of your favorite software and not that the author of the page as updated some text on the page, this feature is very handy.
