New Book Teaches Programmers How to Develop "Web Spiders"

Added: (Thu May 10 2001)

Pressbox (Press Release) - Jerry Miller, president of Help Systems Publications (foxtastic.com/hspost),

has created a number of web spiders since 1998. A spider is a software

application which surfs the Internet automatically, collecting and/or posting

information. One particularly useful and powerful example of this is the

screening of thousands of stocks by price history. Recent results appear at

"Designing Spiders and Robots in C/C++ (and Perl) for UNIX/Solaris/Linux/Posix

and Windows 95/98/NT" by Gerald A. Miller, Ph.D. Details may be obtained at
