For the development stream, I've released a newspaper view for BottomFeeder. How does this work? At the moment, there are 2 settings - one feed level, one global. If you set the global, then you'll get the newspaper view whenever you select a feed in the tree. If you set the feed level setting, you'll get newspaper view when selecting that feed. What's that do?
An HTML summary is created for:
All new items for that feed
If there are no new items, all today's items for that feed
The summary will show the title, the date the item came in, the category (if any) it has set, and the conten in a page. Each item will be set into this page view, and the result shown in a zoomed HTML view. If you need to get back to the list of items, you simply toggle off zoom mode and select any item of interest. This is my first cut at this, so any and all feedback is welcome.
