I know reuse is good for your health, but rolling your own (or reinventing the wheel) can be fun and instructive sometimes. So, I coded a “use.perl journal archiver of my own”. Nothing fancy.

It’s quick-and-ugly, as they say. I can think of many improvements, but of no reason to implement them. Why ?

I downloaded all my entries using this script, only to find some entry I posted a while ago asking for such an archiver, with IlyaM answering me and pointing me to a neat module on CPAN to do a lot of cool stuff with my journal. Ironic, eh
