Feed Reader Plus is an enhancement of the original Feed Reader screenlet by Whise.
About Screenlets:
Screenlets is the name of both a set of independently-developed widget applications and the widget engine which runs them. The engine runs primarily on X11-based compositing window managers, most notably the Compiz (under Linux) architecture.
Until 0.0.14, screenlets were exclusively scripted in Python and drawn in SVG. Afterward, support was added for web widgets (widgets which are written in HTML, JavaScript and CSS, similar to widgets for Apple Inc.'s Dashboard).
Product's homepage
Requirements:
· Screenlets
Limitations:
· Feed item descriptions shown in tooltips will fail to display (blank tooltip) if they contain HTML markup (quite common).
· Resizing FeedReader window width by dragging is blocked by broken on_mouse_up event firing.
· If you make background colors too transparent (~ opacity < 50%) event handling may get all screwed up (highlighting flickers, can't get proper right click menu, etc..).
What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· Fixed crash during feed retrieval errors when "Server side update checking" enabled (default).
