Hello,
I'm trying to stop using the very bloated (Rust, C++ and Ruby deps) Newsboat
and found your nice project; Go isn't too bothersome to me, I'll need it for
OpenDiablo2 and maybe aerc anyway.
Just trying it rapidly, I noticed those missing:
* socks5 HTTP(S) proxy; maybe whatever Go uses to fetch already read the
http_proxy/https_proxy environement variable?
* Together with this, a way to turn off the proxy for certain feeds as
some are behind the great Cloudflare wall.
* file:// protocol support; very important for me, I have some tools
(https://git.sr.ht/~q3cpma/mangadex-tools & https://git.sr.ht/~q3cpma/haggle)
that create local feeds so I can centralize notifications in my feed reader.
* When trying to add an aforementioned file:// feed, I get no error anywhere.
Maybe add a log page?
* Command TAB completion?
* `search-feed` command to search for a feed containing word.
* `search-item` command to do the same on articles (should depend on the
current page and highlighted tree item in the S page).
* config option for the external browser, some don't have xdg-open or want to
use something like lynx just for beagles.
I know it's a quite new project, but I just want to know if I'm missing
something for some and if you're considering implementing some of these.
I could help, but never touched Go, sadly; mainly C, sh and Tcl here.
Regards
Thanks for your feedback, I have added multiple todo items to the backlog
and which release they will be included with, please review them and let
me know if I missed anything. Also I did move this item to the proper
mailing list and deleted the other thread.
Thanks,
Chris

Thanks a lot for the speed! Nothing missing, except maybe the search ticket not
mentioning feed search vs article search (I have something like 230 feeds and
I'm probably a lightweight so it's probably useful).
