Description

Newsboat is a fork of Newsbeuter, an RSS/Atom feed reader for the text console. It runs on Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X and other Unix-like operating systems. Newsboat's great configurability and vast number of features make it a perfect choice for people that need a slick and fast feed reader that can be completely controlled via keyboard. It's the Mutt of RSS feed readers.

This is the last release of newsboat which does not depend on lang/rust to build.
