# Newsboat Terminal RSS and Atom Feed Reader

Newsboat is an actively maintained RSS/Atom feed reader for the text console. A fork of the discontinued Newsbeuter, it provides a fast, keyboard-driven interface for subscribing to, reading, and managing feeds with powerful filtering, macro support, and scriptable automation.

## Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- $ git clone https://github.com/newsboat/newsboat.git
- $ make # pass -jN to use N CPU cores, e.g. -j8

Requirements and caveats from upstream:
- Newsboat depends on a number of libraries, which need to be installed before
- [build from source with Docker](doc/docker.md). Note that the resulting binary
- might not run outside of that same Docker container if your system doesn't
