I don't read Fark these days, so I'd completely forgotten about this script. I've just posted an update that appears to work pretty well with the current Fark design. (Thanks, Teridon!)

If those of you who are regular Fark readers notice bugs, please post them here.

For Fark 2.0, you need to change the link_container_xpath:

link_container_xpath: "//tr[@class='headlineRow']/td[position() = 1]/a",

and the link_category_xpath:

link_category_xpath = "//tr[@class='headlineRow']/descendant::img[translate...

Ok, it looks like you just need to edit the script and change "location=" to "l=" (in fark_passthru_script_regex)

I hadn't seen Fark Butler. It looks like you're right. The ability to hide certain categories seems to be the only difference.

I wrote this for my own use a few months ago, so I figured I'd post it.

How does this differ from the Fark Butler script? Just the weiner link thing?
