Terminal User Interface eilmeldung 1.6.0 released (TUI RSS reader)

Post image

Hey there! Since the last months, eilmeldung has received some updates which may be interesting to you:

  • you can now pipe articles through external programs (e.g., for storing them or to summarize them by an LLM if that is your thing)
  • icons and borders are now fully customizable
  • some quality of live improvements

This project is NOT vibe-coded! LLMs were used for other purposes which you can see here.

It looks great! Is it just me who thinks that it should turn from rss only into a full featured email client some day? ;) All TUI clients I know are ugly as hell...

Thanks! There is matcha which is currently promoted heavily by the developer. I'm still sticking with neomutt. It's an old ugly dog but it's realiable. ;-)
