A command line RSS feed subscriptions checker.

This project is Windows only, as it makes use of the Windows-specific Syndication API.

Use the add and remove sub-commands to add and remove RSS feed subscriptions. Your active subscriptions can be viewed by using the --list flag.

The --weeks option can be used to control the number of weeks from which items are shown, this defaults to 4 weeks.

Additionally, passing the --hide-empty-feeds flag will hide feeds with no items in the last number of specified weeks.

gobbler is designed to be usable as the greeting command in your shell, i.e. the command which runs when your shell is started. Since you probably do not want to see the output every time you start a new shell, there is an option --run-days which allows you to specify after how many days you want to see the output again. By default this is after 1 day, so if you include gobbler --run-days in your shell profile, when starting your shell for the first time on any given day, you will see the new items in the RSS feeds you are subscribed to.

If you do not want to see this daily, you can also use gobbler --run-days=7 to see it every week (or after any other amount of days you like).
