Hi Peter
Thanks for the info its now making some sense...Have just
downloaded the rssfeeder program...You mention  your homeserver ...which i
dont have one .....so can i use the rssfeeder program.???.....Im assuming
some xPL events /determinators create these rssfeeds which are then
captured
and displayed by the xplrss feeder app ???

Sorry for the dumb Q,s
