I updated the script to work with unapproved questions.
I don't like to be popped, so it dumps on term only.
I shamelessly copied the passwd stuff from jcwren's
luke_repwalker.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use LWP::Simple;
use Getopt::Std;
use URI::Escape;
use constant APPROV => 'Approved';
use constant UNAPPROV => 'Unapproved';
my $poll = 60;
my %question = ( APPROV, '', UNAPPROV,'');
my $count = 0;
$|=1;
{
my %args;
getopts('u:p:', \%args);
# Replace these dies with username/password
my $user = $args{u} || 'jeroenes' || # You can put your name here
die("You need to specify the user with -u");
my $pass = $args{p} || 'youdontwannaknowdoyou' || # You can put yo
+ur password here
die("You need to specify the password with -p");
main( $user, $pass ) while (1);
}
sub main {
watch( @_);
my @secs = times;
$secs[0] += $secs[2];
$secs[1] += $secs[3];
printf "Done %5i fetch%s since last new question. CPU: %8.3f user;
+ %8.3f system\r", ++$count, $count>1?'es':'', @secs;
sleep $poll;
}
sub watch {
my $url = 'http://perlmonks.org/index.pl?node=Seekers%20of%20Perl%
+20Wisdom';
if (@_) {
my $user = uri_escape(shift);
my $passwd = uri_escape(shift);
$url .= "&op=login&user=$user&passwd=$passwd";
}
my $content = get($url) or return;
if ($content =~ m/<font color=white>User Questions<\/font>.+?<a hr
+ef=\"\/index\.pl\?node_id=\S+\">(.*?)<\/a>/is) {
compare( APPROV, $1);
}
if ($content =~ m/<font color=white>Unapproved Questions<\/font>.+
+?<a href=\"\/index\.pl\?node_id=\S+\">(.*?)<\/a>/is) {
compare( UNAPPROV, $1);
}
}
sub compare {
my $state = shift;
my $curquestion = shift;
if ($question{$state} ne $curquestion) {
$question{$state} = $curquestion;
act($state);
$count = 0;
}
}
sub act {
my $state = shift;
print "\nNew $state PerlMonks Question: $question{$state}\n";
}
prints out some CPU info while waiting....
cheers, Jeroen

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
-
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
