Hi there,

Do we have any sort of web content searching robot, (i.e. bot, wanderer, spider or crawler) within OACS pkg library (repository history)?

Best wishes,
Iuri

Hi Iuri,

If you are harvesting info from other websites, which is a subset of what you are asking, there is a library to help convert messy html content into usable text in Q-Forms package. See: q-forms/tcl/form-helper-procs

cheers,
Ben

Hi Ben,
That's it. I just created a new oacs instance to evaluate it.

Best Thanks,
Iuri
