It's probably worth mentioning it publicly. It took me the better part of an afternoon (granted, I was doing it on and off while at work) for me to get plucker-build to work the way I wanted it to.

The current default location that the OSX installer places plucker-build is /usr/local/bin/plucker-build. So the short version of how to run it is to run the Terminal app (in Utilities), then type at the prompt:

/usr/local/bin/plucker-build --maxdepth <depth> --doc-file <name of pdb> <URL>

So, for example, for Rec.Humor.Funny's joke of the day, you'd type in...

/usr/local/bin/plucker-build --maxdpeth 2 --doc-file rhf http://www.netfunny.com/rhf/current.html

This will create rhf.pdb in your Home directory. Double-click on it in the Finder to install it.

I've gotten mine to where it downloads my favorite sites daily and automatically puts it to where my Palm will pick it up on every sync, and I'd love to contribute this after I've cleaned it up somewhat, but I don't know where to send it.
