Description:

KRssFeed is (afaik) the only GUI RSS creator for KDE, it has a simple interface, and it implements a simple text editor, so you can add new tags, and fix any mistakes you may have made easier. It is now possible to save.

Hi,

if you want, I can provide you with a hosting of this app at my site. E-mail netswimwebmaster@gmail.com for details.

Can you provide screenshots here so that we can see the app before installing/downloading it?

BTW, I think that if you're serious about this app you should have a website with a bugzilla, news, etc (savannah.gnu.org, sourceforge.net...); Kde-apps is a good place to promote KRssEditor, but doesn't provide the needed infrastructure for the development.

Good luck!!
Edulix.

What I have been looking for is a RSS reader for KDE. Right now I am using bottomFeeder, but would love to use a KDE app for this. Can your program be used as a reader?

I second this, there is no decent RSS aggregator for KDE. Kontact's is decent, but it seems really slow. After setting up 4 feeds, it pauses without redrawing every couple minutes. Or maybe it's blocking while KMail does it's mail check, I don't know.

It would be great if I could add a Web Sidebar to the Universal Sidebar, but that option is missing.

In Version 0.4 i am adding an RSS Reader due to your comments. Do you use the app at all?

If you mean a desktop aggregator app, check out kdenonbeta/akregator. It's very alpha at the moment, though.

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication, and it allows simple content sharing across websites, and also news feeds.

Hi!
Version 0.3 is now out, with the added save ability!
Version 0.4 will have an integrated viewer.
I am planning to redesign the interface, as it is rather cluttered at the moment.
please suggest features here, and i will add them.

I think autofilling out "/home/you" would probably be good.. as well any changed filename into a config file so that it can be saved between runnings of the apps.

Also, perhaps picking a minimum size would be good.. currently you can resize it way down.

Also, can you version the source tarballs? e.g, krsseditor-0.3.1.tar.bz2.. etc..

Config file in what way? at the moment this doesn't allow loading. i will version the files certainly, can i ask your opinion on the actual program? like how easy was it to use? how useful it was? things like that!

Works great in Gentoo..

It would be nice to have a "Save" button..

Hi, thanks for the comments, i'm going to add a save button today, expect it at about 11 AM BST (british summer time). Please keep voting, and downloading new versions. Any other ideas for it?

Try to use more layouts in v2.0
It doen't resize very nice like at the moment.
The Idea is nice.
Something for opening/saving files planned ?

I will fix the resizing tonight, and add it will be fixed in 0.2.5 due tomorrow, what do you mean more layouts?
with 0.2x you can have an unlimitied number of items, which is much better, also something for saving files is planned.
