I've a feed selected, but I want to remove it from my URL's file. I press 'E', and it takes me to the URL's file in $EDITOR, but the cursor is at the first line. The "name" of the feed in newsbeuter is automatically drawn from the URL, so I can't match this automatic name with the URL (which has none of the words from the title in it).
I see 3 possible fixes:
- Put cursor at the line of the selected feed in $EDITOR
- Have an option in newsbeuter to remove feeds directly
- Have a way of seeing the raw URL within newsbeuter
Option number three is already present in Newsbeuter: when you open articles list, current feed's url is shown in the title of the dialog.
But I like option number one, so the issue is not closed—I'll have to implement it!
Ahh yes. I see #1 now, but many of my URL's are quite long and from feedburner.com, so I see the same in the title bar for all of them without getting the unique parts:
e.g. 'www.feedburner.com/action/' is all I see for multiple feeds.
Subscribing now.
