DESCRIPTION

       Output TV listings in XMLTV format for many stations available in Europe.

       First you must run tv_grab_eu_xmltvse --configure to choose which stations you want to receive.

       Then running tv_grab_eu_xmltvse with no arguments will get listings for the stations you chose for five
       days including today.

OPTIONS

       --configure Prompt for which stations to download and write the configuration file.

       --config-file FILE Set the name of the configuration file (the default is
       ~/.xmltv/tv_grab_eu_xmltvse.conf).  This is the file written by --configure and read when grabbing.

       --gui OPTION Use this option to enable a graphical interface to be used.  OPTION may be 'Tk', or left
       blank for the best available choice.  Additional allowed values of OPTION are 'Term' for normal terminal
       output (default) and 'TermNoProgressBar' to disable the use of Term::ProgressBar.

       --output FILE When grabbing, write output to FILE rather than standard output.

       --days N When grabbing, grab N days rather than 5.

       --offset N Start grabbing at today + N days.  N may be negative.

       --quiet Suppress the progress-bar normally shown on standard error.

       --debug Provide more information on progress to stderr to help in debugging.

       --list-channels Output a list of all channels that data is available for. The list is in xmltv format.

       --version Show the version of the grabber.

       --help Print a help message and exit.

ERROR HANDLING

       If the grabber fails to download data for a channel on a specific day, it will print an error message to
       STDERR and then continue with the other channels and days. The grabber will exit with a status code of 1
       to indicate that the data is incomplete.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       The environment variable HOME can be set to change where configuration files are stored. All
       configuration is stored in $HOME/.xmltv/. On Windows, it might be necessary to set HOME to a path without
       spaces in it.
