**noss** is a command-line RSS/Atom feed reader and aggregator written in
Perl.

## Building
**noss** should be able to run on most Unix-like and Windows systems.

**noss** depends on the following:
* `perl` (&gt;= `5.16`)
* `DBI`
* `DBD::SQLite`
* `JSON`
* `Parallel::ForkManager`
* `Time::Piece`
* `XML::LibXML`
* `curl` (&gt;= `7.68.0`)
* `lynx`
* `sqlite3` (&gt;= `3.35.0`)

**noss** optionally depends on the following:
* `JSON::XS`: For faster JSON processing.
* `dialog`: For the `nossui` script.

Once the aforementioned dependencies are installed, **noss** can be built and
installed via the following commands:
```bash
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
```
Please consult the documentation for the `ExtUtils::MakeMaker` Perl module for
information on configuring the build process.

## Usage
The documentation for the usage of **noss** can be found in its manual.
```bash
man noss
```
It should contain all the information you need to get started using **noss**.

**noss** also comes with **nossui**, a `dialog`-based TUI frontend to **noss**
written in POSIX `sh`. Most of the regular functionality of **noss** should also
be available through **nossui**.
