A really nice light-weight news reader!
I'm currently using FeedReader 2.90, it's less bloated compared to the newer versions...
...If you could implement the 'new updates' pop-up (preferably auto-resizing) that's used in FeedReader you'd definitely swing my vote towards NFReader
Well done on a rather nice piece of software!

ok, the feed import now working. I imported using another client and then exported and imported with the reader.
Abilon -> SageToo -> NFReader
One MAJOR problem...
With over 150 feeds, the program is slow and hangs. takes some time to close and open (Abilon is instant and very fast). When I mark items as read, in abilon, it's instant. In NFReader, it's slow when the feeds are over 150.
Todo list before I switch to nfreader :
-Firefox must be out of focus, or nfreader should steal the focus again.
-Improvements in speed.
-custom icons.

NFReader ist not designed for hundreds of feeds.kuihdez wrote:With over 150 feeds, the program is slow and hangs. takes some time to close and open (Abilon is instant and very fast). When I mark items as read, in abilon, it's instant. In NFReader, it's slow when the feeds are over 150.
But I will try to make it faster.
i would like to see option to mark different news read/unread in feeds. right now there is only option to mark all news read/unread.
another request would be a newsbar with subjects (like in FeedReader)
thanks in advance : )
btw, in Settings -> Feeds, there should be "Flash Tray icon" not "Flash Try icon"

A pop-up window with the subjects of new items comes in the next version.bassiliin wrote:another request would be a newsbar with subjects (like in FeedReader)

Thank you!Toxteth O'Grady wrote:This is a very nice program, I like it.![]()
The position of the horizontal splitter bar is already stored.Toxteth O'Grady wrote:One wish (at the moment): the text view\html view part of the window always opens at a default size. Could you change that, so that it remembers its position when the program iss closed?
You must deactivate the option "General" > "Adjust the height of the detail area automatically".
