Peapod is currently designed to be run from the command-line - ie, it doesn’t have a GUI. Once you have downloaded & extracted peapod simpy type :
/path/to/peapod
This will create a default configuration file for you in your home directory in :
~/.peapod/peapod.xml
You can edit this file in a text-editor to set the defaults for the program. You can also over-ride the defaults by using command-line arguments which you can read by typing :
/path/to/peapod –help
To add a feed using the commandline simply type :
/path/to/peapod –addnew=http://www.somewhere.com/feed.xml
To fetch any updated feeds in your list just run :
/path/to/peapod
To copy all the feeds you’ve downloaded recently to your MP3 player you can run :
/path/to/peapod –copynew
Every subsequent run with “–copynew” will copy all of the podcasts that you’ve downloaded since the last time you ran –copynew.
To dump a playlist of downloaded files since the last time you ran playlist
/path/to/peapod --playlist > /path/to/podcasts.m3u
