There are a couple of different forums, that don't have an RSS feed, where I want to aggregate new postings from.
I don't need any fancy database stuff, a simple diff would do and the changes be concatenated as they appear to a local html file that I'd just refresh in my web browser.
However, diff would of course also deliver unwanted info such as changed dates, visitor counters etc.
So before I start reinventing a wheel by creating a bash script that contains a lot of diffing and grepping, I thought I'd ask if there's maybe already such a script available somewhere.

https://www.archlinux.org/packages/comm … /urlwatch/ is one of those tools. With it you can filter out parts of the html pages. Written in Python.

For accessing forum threads, where a thread can be spread across several html pages, you could also have a look at 'flexget' and its 'html' plugin (http://flexget.com/wiki/Plugins/html).
