Installation
Getrss
At the moment getrss works only for Unix-like systems. No installation required, just unpack the tarball:
#tar xvfz getrss-x.x.tar.gz
Make sure you have a working Python installation in your system
In a (near) future, getrss will be ready to work for any OS and with no need of a previous Python installation.
Gprss
Unpack the tarball and copy the 'gprss' directory to your desired location of the sd card.
Make sure you have a working Python+PyGame installation in your console. You can grab the theoddbot's python and pygame distribution from here.
