NAME

       rawdog - an RSS Aggregator Without Delusions Of Grandeur

SYNOPSIS

       rawdog [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page briefly documents the rawdog command.

       rawdog  is  an RSS (and other) feed aggregator, based on Mark Pilgrim’s
       flexible feed parser. rawdog reads articles from a number of feeds  and
       writes  out  a single HTML file, based on a template either provided by
       the user or generated by rawdog, containing the  latest  articles  it’s
       seen.

OPTIONS

       This  program  follows  the  usual  GNU  command line syntax, with long
       options starting with  two  dashes  (‘-’).  A  summary  of  options  is
       included below. For a complete description, see the README file.

       -u, --update
              Fetch  data  from  the  feeds and store it. This could take some
              time if you’ve got lots of feeds.

       -w, --write
              Write out the HTML output file.

       -f SOMEURL, --update-feed SOMEURL
              Update the feed pointed to by SOMEURL immediately, even  if  its
              period hasn’t elapsed since it was last updated.

       -c FILE, --config FILE
              Read  FILE as an additional config file; any options provided in
              FILE will override those set in the main config file  (with  the
              exception  of  "feed",  which  is  cumulative).   FILE may be an
              absolute path or a path  relative  to  your  .rawdog  directory.
              Note  that $HOME/.rawdog/config will still be read first even if
              you specify this option.

       -t,  --show-template
              Print the template currently in use to stdout.

       -a URL, --add URL
              Add a new feed to the config file.

       -d DIR, --dir DIR
              Use DIR instead of the $HOME/.rawdog directory.

       --help Provide a brief summary of all the options rawdog supports,  and
              exit.
