entombed in the shrine of zeroes and ones

Here is my python version.

---
import xmlrpclib,string,ftplib,os

ljUserName = "put your lj name here"
ljPassword = "put your lj password here"
tempFileName = "MyPlan"
fingerHost = "put the ip or hostname of the ftp site where you want to put your plan"
fingerUserName = "put the account name of the ftp account on the finger site"
fingerPassword = "put the password of the ftp account on the finger site"
fingerFile = ".plan"

server = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy(uri="http://www.livejournal.com/interface/xmlrpc",verbose=False)
result = {}
plan = ""

result = server.LJ.XMLRPC.getevents({"username": ljUserName,"password": ljPassword,"selecttype":"one","itemid":"-1"})
plan = string.join(
[ result['events'][0]['eventtime'],
result['events'][0]['subject'],
"",
result['events'][0]['event']],
"\n")

temp = file(tempFileName,"w+a")
temp.write(plan)
temp.close()

storeCommand = "STOR " + fingerFile

temp = file(tempFileName)
ftpClient = ftplib.FTP(fingerHost, fingerUserName, fingerPassword)
ftpClient.storlines(storeCommand,temp)
ftpClient.quit()
temp.close()

os.remove(tempFileName)

Simple no?
