address@hidden Overview
address@hidden Overview
-
-Newsticker provides a newsticker for Emacs. A newsticker is a thing
-that asynchronously retrieves headlines from a list of news sites,
-prepares these headlines for reading, and allows for loading the
-corresponding articles in a web browser.
-
-
-Headlines consist of a title and (possibly) a small description.  They
-are contained in "RSS" (RDF Site Summary) or "Atom" files.  Newsticker
-should work with the following RSS formats:
-
address@hidden
address@hidden RSS 0.91 (see @uref{http://backend.userland.com/rss091} or
address@hidden://my.netscape.com/publish/formats/rss-spec-0.91.html}),
address@hidden RSS 0.92 (see @uref{http://backend.userland.com/rss092}),
address@hidden RSS 1.0 (see @uref{http://purl.org/rss/1.0/spec}
address@hidden RSS 2.0 (see @uref{http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss}),
address@hidden itemize
address@hidden
-as well as the following Atom formats:
address@hidden Atom 0.3
address@hidden Atom 1.0 (see
address@hidden://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-atompub-format-11.txt}).
address@hidden itemize
-
-That makes Newsticker.el an "Atom aggregator, "RSS reader", or "RSS
-aggregator".
-
-Newsticker provides several commands for reading headlines, navigating
-through them, marking them as read/unread, hiding old headlines etc.
-Headlines can be displayed as plain text or as rendered HTML.
-
-Headlines can be displayed in the echo area, either scrolling like
-messages in a stock-quote ticker, or just changing.
-
-Newsticker allows for automatic processing of headlines by providing
-hooks and (sample) functions for automatically downloading images and
-enclosed files (as delivered by podcasts, e.g.).

address@hidden Requirements
address@hidden Requirements
-
-Newsticker can be used with
address@hidden://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/emacs.html, GNU Emacs} version
-21.1 or later as well as @uref{http://www.xemacs.org, XEmacs}.  It
-requires an XML-parser (@file{xml.el}) which is part of GNU Emacs.  If
-you are using XEmacs you want to get the @file{net-utils} package
-which contains @file{xml.el} for XEmacs.
-
-Newsticker requires a program which can retrieve files via http and
-prints them to stdout.  By default Newsticker will use
address@hidden://www.gnu.org/software/wget/wget.html, wget} for this task.
-
-
address@hidden Installation
address@hidden Installation
-
-As Newsticker is part of GNU Emacs there is no need to perform any
-installation steps in order to use Newsticker.
-
-However, if you are using imenu, which allows for navigating with the
-help of a menu, you should add the following to your Emacs startup file
-(@file{~/.emacs}).
-
address@hidden
-(add-hook 'newsticker-mode-hook 'imenu-add-menubar-index)
address@hidden lisp
-
-That's it.
-
address@hidden Usage
address@hidden Usage
-
address@hidden newsticker-show-news
-The command @code{newsticker-show-news} will display all available
-headlines in a special buffer, called @samp{*newsticker*}.  It will
-also start the asynchronous download of headlines.  The modeline in
-the @samp{*newsticker*} buffer informs whenever new headlines have
-arrived.  Clicking mouse-button 2 or pressing RET in this buffer on a
-headline will call @code{browse-url} to load the corresponding news
-story in your favourite web browser.
-
address@hidden newsticker-start-ticker
address@hidden newsticker-stop-ticker
-The scrolling, or flashing of headlines in the echo area, can be
-started with the command @code{newsticker-start-ticker}. It can be
-stopped with @code{newsticker-stop-ticker}.
-
address@hidden newsticker-start
address@hidden newsticker-stop
-If you just want to start the periodic download of headlines use the
-command @code{newsticker-start}. Calling @code{newsticker-stop} will
-stop the periodic download, but will call
address@hidden as well.
-
address@hidden Configuration
address@hidden Configuration
-
-All Newsticker options are customizable, i.e. they can be changed with
-Emacs customization methods: Call the command
address@hidden and enter @samp{newsticker} for the customization
-group.
-
-All Newsticker options have reasonable default values, so that in most
-cases it is not necessary to customize settings before starting Newsticker
-for the first time.

-such a tool from slightly attenuating your Editor's responsiveness
-every once in a while.
-
-Byte-compiling newsticker.el is recommended.
