Re: NEW: www/sfeed and www/sfeed_curses (RSS/Atom tool and reader)

Hi,
This was on my to-do list d'or a while.
I use sfeed daily through a cron job and ftp for fetching feeds.
It works like a charm, I just had to increase the summary lenght for sfeed_plain.
Thank you for sfeed, and suggesting a port.
