newsbeuter 1.0 released

Quoting ak:

Exactly 650 days after I started developing newsbeuter, I declare newsbeuter officially “finished”, in the sense that it contains all the features that I wanted to have in it. It was a great effort, hours and hours of programming, debugging and answering support requests, but it paid off, and the result is probably the greatest console-based RSS feed reader that ever existed.

newsbeuter also has its own website from now on, located on: http://www.newsbeuter.org/.

I consider newsbeuter really the perfect newsreader and as feature rich as the equivalent for mail: mutt.

The main improvements for me in 1.0 are

• highlighting of text defined by regular expressions


• search function in the help dialog (newsbeuter really got quite a lot of commands in the meantime)


• reset-unread-on-update option which enables you to get updates on specific blog entries if they change in the future

Besides those features newsbeuter glances with a long list of other features:

• podcast support


• ssl support


• auto-reload


• only display unread blogs


• bookmark support


• specify article format strings


• key binding support


• external html rendering support


• article filtering based on regular expressions aka killfile


• macro support


• proxy support


• ompl export/import


• tagging of blogs


• article saving


• custom filter scripts


• on-the-fly variable editing (we know that from mutt, vim, etc.)


• bloglines synchronisation


• query feeds (meta feeds on top of the feeds specified in URLs selected by a filter expression)


• usual key bindings to mark as read/unread etc.

Which command line rss feed reader can mess with this while also providing a good, intuitive user interface we know
from other quality text-mode applications like vim and others? ;-P
Thank you ak for developing this excellent piece of software!
