Hello!  Smiley
I have seen tutorials on setting up an Arduino with an LCD screen to accept an RSS feed.  The demonstrations I have seen use Python. I don't work with Python and don't have the time to learn it at the moment. So is it possible to do the same thing with the Processing?

Thank you

Samantha

It might be worth posting a link to the Python specific tutorials but, assuming all the Python is doing is interpreting RSS feeds and passing them to Arduino, this sounds perfectly feasible in Processing... Though TBH once you've got the hang of one language it's not so difficult to move to another (though of course Python isn't very forgiving to programmers who can't manage consistent indentation Wink )

Thank you for the response. I must have forgot to mention that I am not a programmer, but I do work with processing and actionscript. Therefore it is very difficult for me to transition between languages, not impossible, but time consuming. It were be preferable if I could fin something done with processing.
Again thank you.  Smiley
