Tickr (formerly News) Description

A RSS READER application (also known as Feed Reader or Feed Aggregator)

RSS feeds are a web format used to publish frequently updated content (such as news headlines, blog entries, audio, video, real-time stock market quotes, etc...) in a standardized XML format. A RSS document includes text (full or summerized) and metadata such as publishing time, authorship, links to web pages. RSS feeds allow you to see when websites have added new content so you can get the latest headlines and video in one place, as soon as its published, without having to visit the websites you have taken the feed from. RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication and virtually includes every possible "self-refreshing" or "self-updating" web content. When seeing this: rss logo on a website, clicking on it let you subscribe to its RSS feed, which simply means copying the feed URL and pasting it into your RSS Ticker or Reader. The basic idea is that you don't have to "refresh" anything, it's done automatically. So, once you have bookmarked your favorite feeds, you only have to launch NEWS RSS Ticker to know what's going on now.

Features

NEWS RSS Ticker displays feeds as a smooth scrolling line, as known from TV stations. What makes NEWS different from other tickers is that graphics are highly customizable and scrolling is fast and smooth.

Settings include:

- Ticker scrolling speed, update delay, fonts, font sizes and colors, dimensions and location of the ticker on the screen, displaying the ticker inside a "draggable" window or without one, displaying or not a clock, and more (just check out the screenshots page.)

- You can bookmark your favorite RSS feeds, link NEWS with your favourite browser so that you can open links and watch web pages you're interested in with just one click. You can play, pause, reload the current feed, and change the scrolling speed on the fly.

NEWS RSS Ticker is a native Linux application written in C with GTK+2.0 and Libxml2. It has been ported to Windows with MinGW and runs fine on both platforms.
