Tired of having to go to a browser to get your rss feeds? If so, then Newsbeuter is the way to go! It's like mutt, but for rss \o/

Opening

Type newsbeuter at the prompt, like so:

This opens up the client window, well it should but if there's no URL file it'll do this instead:

Making It Work

To fix this you'll need to edit the ~/.newsbeuter/urls file. Just type:

 nano ~/.newsbeuter/urls

Then just add the links of your rss feeds, here's how I've got mine done.

Now when you type newsbeuter at the prompt you should see something like this:

If yours looks similar to this you're good to go, if not try redoing these steps again or give helpdesk a shout.
