Scan for new stories in Radio

I've been working with Radio's news aggregator, adding some features for a future release. I whipped out a script in about two minutes and added it to the Radio menu in the application that allows me to run aggregator scan on demand.

Download it from this link.

When you import the script, it gets stored in system.verbs.builtins.radio.aggregator for safekeeping. In order to add it to the Radio menu, you'll need to modify the menu's source at radio.menu. I put it Radio's Utilities submenu.

Note the lack of specific instructions. If you're familiar with Radio's internal database, then you'll have no problem figuring this out. If you're not, you shouldn't be mucking about in there, OK?
