Comments
If the commenters of this blog like to achieve links then they should at the very least show the common sense to try and post a structured and considered reply. All comment spam does is potentially negatively impact your backlinking efforts and also creates useless backlinks. The only way to behave is to befriend other bloggers who have blogs of a similar topic and generate totally targeted traffic by making a detailed comment. Maybe people might consider this before replying below me, We live in hope.

Not sure I understand your question fully.
If you try run this on your local without a web server you might get a bunch of errors or no unicorn at all. Vectron uses Ajax requests to get the SVG file, for this you need to have a local web server or run it on a real environment. More about this issue can be found here.
If your question is of a different nature why not ask it over on Stack Overflow, where you can ask your question to a broader audience. I'm sure somebody there will have had the same challenge as you.

I am sorry but I never have used Statuses. I can confirm moist of your steps. But you don't need to clone your original view. You have to duplicate it. (I assume that your original view is not a page)
In my example above i have a View-Pane. And the autorefresh part is a page. So I had to built the whole view as a page again so i can give it a path.
I hope this was helpful. If not, please feel free to contact me via E-Mail or Skype.

Well I have a different issue. Basically I want to write a general standalone script that parses different SVG files and makes some changes(permanent ones). It has nothing to do with the web. How do I go about it??
