✨ NAME ✨

nossui — a dialog-based frontend to noss. yes she's cute AND functional, we love a multitasker 💅

---

🌸 USAGE 🌸

nossui [options] ...

that's it. that's the vibe. options go in, good times come out ✨

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so nossui is a dialog(1)-based frontend to the noss(1) feed reader and aggregator. think of her as the main character glossy UI sitting on top of the whole thing 👑

most of the regular functionality in noss(1) should be accessible from this script — like, not everything everything, but "most" and honestly that's iconic.

just like with noss(1), you must give nossui a list of feeds to aggregate via a feeds file. literally non-negotiable, bestie 😭 if you wanna know the format, go consult the Feeds File section in the noss(1) manual — iykyk, it's all documented there.

nossui can also have some of its behavior tweaked through a noss(1) configuration file 🌈 same deal: check the CONFIGURATION section in the noss(1) manual for the format of a configuration file and the available configuration options. customization era 💖

---

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -c file — specify path to the noss(1) configuration file to use 🎀
• -D dir — specify path to directory to use as the noss(1) data directory 🍓
• -f file — specify path to the noss(1) feeds file to use 🦋
• -h — print usage message and exit. short, sweet, slay 💅
• -v — print version and copyright information, then exit. she's giving receipts 📜✨

🌈 ENVIRONMENT 🌈

consult the ENVIRONMENT section in the noss(1) manual for a list of recognized environment variables 💜 (no cap, it's all over there, i'm not typing the whole list twice bestie)
