I am attempting to write a watch file for my debian package, xevil. Here is how I would direct a human to find the latest version: 1) Go to: http://www.xevil.com/xevil/dev/download.html 2) Click on the "Stable version" link 3) Click on the "Xevil" link Here is what I have of my watch file so far: version=3 http://www.xevil.com/xevil/dev/download.html (.*)/download_stable.shtml That is the watch file equivalent to Step 1 and 2 above. Unfortunately, I don't know how to continue. How do I get subsequent lines to remember the results of previous lines? Like assigning variables in a script or program? The current upstream is: http://www.xevil.com/download/stable/xevilsrc2.02r2.zip Unfortunatley, the following watch line won't work: http://www.xevil.com/download/stable/xevilsrc(*.).zip because directory listings are (403) forbidden. Also, xevil is a dead project. The latest release was years ago, and Satan doesn't respond to email. Would you guys recommend not having a watch file? Even if so, I would really like to know how I would solve this problem, if it needed solving. For the future. -Brandon
