RT @petercmoore: So drive-in cinemas can open from next week. That will please Ralph, Potsie, and the Fonz.

Lovely to hear @katerusby’s version of Manic Monday on @BBCRadio2

I’m wondering what I’d like to have on my fantasy Kate Rusby covers LP

Great pop song!

Then to add in line feeds:

$Text -replace ‘xxx’,"rnrn" https://t.co/KoeBTW3BbK

Or…

[string]$Text = $Obj | select @{E={'[' + $.text + ‘](’ + $.xmlurl + ‘) - a podcast I listen to [RSS link](’ + $_.xmlurl + ‘)’ + ‘xxx’ }} | out-string -width 4096

I’m sure there was a better way of doing this….a Powershell equivalent of grep -c

select-string temp $(get-childitem -File) | group-object filename | select count, name t.co/dZLPAf3JV…

Turning the object into basic markdown….

$Obj = select-xml -xml $opml -xpath “//body” | select -ExpandProperty Node | select -ExpandProperty Outline | select text, xmlurl

Sharp-eyed viewers may notice that xmlurl and htmlurl are similar

select-xml -xml $opml -xpath “//body” | select -ExpandProperty Node | select -ExpandProperty Outline | select text, xmlurl, htmlurl | select text, @{E = {$.xmlurl -replace $.htmlurl,‘Potato’}; L=‘UrlPotato’} t.co/rvHH6E0Wm…

OPML is the file you get when you export your podcast subscriptions

My file is here, in case anyone’s interested.

I’m going to turn it into a blog post at some stage, so it will be easier to read. Hopefully

Turning podcast OPML into a Powershell object

I’m afraid @Ofcom aren’t making this easy….you have to download a form, then fill it in, then email it, but if you want to help @SaveSpireFM then you need to do so by 5pm today t.co/rNo2Qg5Iz…

Who would think a list of numbers, in the replies to Danny’s tweet, would make me feel so nostalgic?

171 and 185…..

I think I’ve got something in my eye.

Danny Baker @prodnose George what south London bus would you say you have been on most? The 53, the 177 or the 47?
