Show HN: Gutsy, command line app to parse HN Who is Hiring Threads (in Perl)

Since in about 11 hours, there will be new job postings, I thought I'd show this to people. It is about half way done, but is usable, despite mostly being an excuse to practice coding.

You can search by job type: remote, HIB, internships/ by location/ by language, and pull the postings into a separate html or text file.

It's better then Ctrl/Cmd +f. You can construct arbitrary function references (see GutsyExamples) to pick which postings you want, so I can reject postings which say no remote, or remote control when searching for remote positions. It also searches comments on pages linked with a More.

I plan to allow && between job type, location, and languages, maybe add a few locations (suggestions or pull requests welcome), as well as allow doing your own searches. Hopefully I can get some of that done before midnight tonight.

Anyway I'm curious if anybody besides me would find this useful.
