Yesterday evening I released v1.4.0 of OldNews, my terminal-based client for TheOldReader.
The change in this release is pretty straightforward, but something I kept finding myself wanting. I've added three new commands to the application:
JumpToSubscriptions- Jump to the subscriptions panelJumpToArticles- Jump to the articles panelJumpToArticle- Jump to the article panel
By default they're bound to 1, 2 and 3. So now skipping around the UI and navigating to a different article or blog is just a bit quicker.
If you're a user of TheOldReader and fancy interacting with it from the terminal: OldNews is licensed GPL-3.0 and available via GitHub and also via PyPI. It can also be installed using uv:
uv tool install oldnews
If you don't have uv installed you can use uvx.sh to perform the installation. For GNU/Linux or macOS or similar:
curl -LsSf uvx.sh/oldnews/install.sh | sh
or on Windows:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://uvx.sh/oldnews/install.ps1 | iex"
If uv isn't your thing then it can also be installed with pipx:
pipx install oldnews
Once installed, run the oldnews command.
