SYNOPSIS
straw
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly straw. This manual page was written
for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have
a manual page.
straw is a program that will download a number of RSS files from the
Internet, and display them in an easy-to-read manner. RSS files are
typically used to display headlines in news sites and to display
entries in a individuals diary.
