The RSSFilter script joins seven existing scripts in FeedForAll’s RSS Scripts directory. Access to the scripts directory is freely available to all registered users of FeedForAll and FeedForAll Mac, or a subscription to the scripts directory can be purchased for US$29.95.

The RSSmesh script allows for multiple RSS feeds to be merged into a single RSS feed. The SQL2RSS scripts allow users to generate RSS feeds from MySQL databases. The RSS2SQL script converts RSS feeds to a database, and the RSS2HTML Pro allows for advance manipulation and display of RSS feeds as HTML Web pages.
