First find the url you think is the rss feed or xml feed and get the
cursor on it then hit the "=" sign in lynx. Look to where it says url:
and then check the ending of the next line. If it's xml or rss, then you
have a feed. Copy that feed and save it in a separate file then close
lynx and open up snownews and hit the a command then paste that url in.
Then try to open the url and see what happens.On Fri, 11 Apr 2008, Lee

Hi Hart,
According to the man page, lynx is already the default browser for snownews.
At least that's the way it is on Cygwin. My browse file already says "lynx
%s". I'm not sure what you want to accomplish.
Also according to the man page, if I recall or understand correctly, the o
command opens a news item.
Note I've never successfully read anything with snownews. I suppose I have to
get the URL of an RSS feed and paste it into the add command. I tried the
main page of a site I think has an RSS feed but it didn't work. Isn't there
some easier way? Or maybe there isn't really an RSS there; I'll have to
check.
