== NAME
newsboat - an RSS/Atom feed reader for text terminals
== SYNOPSIS
*newsboat* [-r] [-e] [-i opmlfile] [-u urlfile] [-c cachefile] [-C configfile] [-X] [-o] [-x <command> ...] [-h]
== DESCRIPTION
_Newsboat_ is an RSS/Atom feed reader for text terminals. RSS and Atom are a
number of widely-used XML formats to transmit, publish and syndicate articles,
for example news or blog articles. Newsboat is designed to be used on text
terminals on Unix or Unix-like systems such as GNU/Linux, BSD or Mac OS X.
== OPTIONS
-h, --help::
Display help
-r, --refresh-on-start::
Refresh feeds on start
-e, --export-to-opml::
Export feeds as OPML to stdout
-X, --vacuum::
Compact the cache by: 1) reclaiming the space that was left empty when
data was deleted; and 2) defragmenting the entries in the cache. This
*doesn't* delete the entries; for that, see _cleanup-on-quit_,
_delete-read-articles-on-quit_, _keep-articles-days_, and _max-items_
settings.
--cleanup::
Remove unreferenced entries from the cache and quit Newsboat. Feeds and
their articles will be removed if the feedurl is no longer in the
_urls_ file.
+
Additionally, if the _delete-read-articles-on-quit_ configuration is set, all
read articles will be deleted (including articles of feeds which are still in
the _urls_ file).
-v, -V, --version::
Get version information about Newsboat and the libraries it uses
-i opmlfile, --import-from-opml=opmlfile::
Import an OPML file
-u urlfile, --url-file=urlfile::
Use an alternative URL file
-c cachefile, --cache-file=cachefile::
Use an alternative cache file
-C configfile, --config-file=configfile::
Use an alternative configuration file
-x command ..., --execute=command...::
Execute one or more commands to run Newsboat unattended. Currently available
commands are "reload" and "print-unread".
-l loglevel, --log-level=loglevel::
Generate a logfile with a certain loglevel. Valid loglevels are 1 to 6. An
actual logfile will only be written when you provide a logfile name.
-d logfile, --log-file=logfile::
Use this logfile as output when logging debug messages. Please note that this
only works when providing a loglevel.
-E file, --export-to-file=file::
Export a list of read articles (resp. their GUIDs). This can be used to
transfer information about read articles between different computers.
-I file, --import-from-file=file::
Import a list of read articles and mark them as read if they are held in the
cache. This is to be used in conjunction with the -E commandline parameter.

_save_ <filename>::

[[cmd-set]] _set_ <variable>[=<value>|&|!]::

_tag_ <tagname>::
Select a certain tag
_goto_ <case-insensitive substring>::
Go to the next feed whose name contains the case-insensitive substring.
_source_ <filename> [...]::
Load the specified configuration files. This allows it to load alternative configuration files or reload already loaded configuration files on-the-fly from the filesystem.
_dumpconfig_ <filename>::
Save current internal state of configuration to file, so that it can be instantly reused as configuration file.
