curn: Customizable Utilitarian RSS Notifier.
curn is an RSS reader. It scans a configured set of URLs, each
one representing an RSS feed, and summarizes the results in an
easy-to-read text format. curn keeps track of URLs it's seen
before, using an on-disk cache; when using the cache, it will suppress
displaying URLs it has already reported (though that behavior can be
disabled). curn can be extended to use any RSS parser; by
default, it uses the ROME parser.
The Curn class represents the API entry point into the
curn processing. Any program can call a Curn object's
Curn.processRSSFeeds processRSSFeeds() method to invoke a curn
run. In practice, most people use the existing Tool command-line
program.
