EFL User Guide

-

This is the user guide for non-E17 EFL programs.

3.9 - eRSS

eRSS is an EFL based program that displays RSS feeds on your desktop and can also launch browsers. It does not work correctly in E17 as it uses fake transparency and is not designed as a module. The eRSS project owner is Martin Sarajervi. Please also check http://enlightenment.sourceforge.net/Applications/Erss/index.html.

Important note: eRSS has not been updated for a long time, and as such is more or less abandoned right now. Christopher 'devilhorns' Michael is developing an RSS module for E17 though - please follow our news feed: we'll post there as soon as it's been released (as in added to public CVS).

eRSS

Usage: erss [OPTION] ...
-c CONFIG specify a config file (required)
-l list avaliable config files
-t THEME specify an edje theme file (.edj)
else the default will be used.
-h display this help and exit
-v display erss version
By default, eRSS will use the following config file: ~/.erssrc. eRSS comes with 3 themes: darkgrey.edj, default.edj and white.edj. These files are located in /usr/share/erss (depending on where you installed it)

Here's an example config file:




/usr/local/share/erss/config/slashdot.cfg

/usr/local/share/erss/default.eet

/usr/bin/galeon

Also check erss -l. For example if you want a Slashdot RSS feed on your desktop you would use the following command:
$ erss -c /usr/share/erss/config/slashdot.cfg
It is also possible to create your own CFG files. The syntax is very simple. The following is an example of a functional freshmeat.cfg:
