Shell script to get PIDs from schedules

[Chris Allison]

Sorry, google switched back to html without me noticing, resending this.

Peter,

some good ideas there, but there is no need to scrape the web pages
when all the schedule info you could possibly need is available in
xml, json and yaml files at urls of this form:

www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/programmes/schedules/fm/this_week.json
www.bbc.co.uk/radio4extra/programmes/schedules/2014/11/1.json
www.bbc.co.uk/bbcfour/programmes/schedules/last_week.json

etc.

see this page for further info:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/legacy/radiolabs/2008/05/helping_machines_play_with_pro.shtml

the :outlet part is 'fm' for radio4, 'england' for bbcone and two and
not needed for radio 4 extra/bbc four etc.

hope this helps.

Chris
