General Software Discussion / Re: RSSOwl Alternative?

FeedDemon 4 is available in a non-ads version. Anyway, I asked Nick to add subfolders support, he denied because of Google Reader compatibility.

Stupid Google.

Ha, Google Reader. Never. 

The major advantage of Sage is that it has direct access to Firefox, so a separate profile would probably discard that.

Ah, good to know. Might be another try.

(And it does do folders.)

Folders vs. subfolders?

I had NewsFox before I decided to use separate feed readers. My Firefox is fat enough. 
Never tried Sage though. Yet.

Subfolders. I can put my feeds into folders, even Google Reader is said to support that, but I want folders inside these folders.

It's not about "alternative feed readers" but about "alternative feed readers with subfolders support", so my initial question requires experience with feed readers, not just "list me some RSS readers please".  

GreatNews fails to import some of my feeds, "unknown format", WTF?  
Oh, and it does not support subfolders, so: Bye, GreatNews.

Hmm, not bad, app103. :-)
Looks like it works. I'll give it a try. (Funny UI, though.)

Google will never know what I like to read.

And it doesn't support subfolders.

General Software Discussion / RSSOwl Alternative?

« on: November 29, 2010, 03:13 PM »

During the past few years I have tested quite a lot of RSS reader software. Online RSS readers are ridiculous, I use RSS because I don't want to visit a website for everything.

Currently I am stuck to RSSOwl for one simple reason:
I am stuck to subfolders. 

I have quite many RSS feeds (> 100) in my list, and I sorted them into subfolders just because I had the chance to do so. Now RSSOwl is not really resource-friendly (Java...), so I wonder if there is a decent alternative with subfolders support.

FeedDemon does not.

Google is known to have many but goofy search results.
I'd recommend Yippy instead.

XHTML is not actually made for websites anyway, that's why it has not become HTML 5. Learn to write standards-compliant HTML (no quirks mode) and you're safe.

BTW the easiest way to make your website use PHP is to rename *.htm(l) into *.php.

So if any error occurs, people will come here anyway.

How can we check if it works while there is no newer version which could be detected?

1916

General Software Discussion / Re: Linux webserver du jour?

« on: November 20, 2010, 03:29 PM »

At least it seems to support it at all.   

Keep us informed.

Hmm, looks rather similar to Cherokee but is not so well documented...

General Software Discussion / Re: Linux webserver du jour?

« on: November 20, 2010, 11:26 AM »

I chose cherokee because I like playing with non-mainstream alternatives and it is probably the feature-richest lightweight webserver application available. I am not a Ruby dev at all, so all I can say is that cherokkee works fine. I tested lighttpd, too, but I was missing some features...

Never heard of Hiawata. Any URL?

General Software Discussion / Re: CCEnhancer 2 makes CCleaner support 270 more programs

« on: November 19, 2010, 07:09 PM »

Really, really strange...

Of course I clicked it. 

Now maybe something is wrong with the detection on my system (which shouldn't be the case), as Bram changed smth in the installer lately (in gVim 7.3); could anyone check if the registry entry is still correct? I use a self-compiled build...

After installing CCEnhancer, the "Vim" entry disappeared from my CCleaner, that's why...

General Software Discussion / Re: Linux webserver du jour?

« on: November 19, 2010, 12:26 PM »

For my own little webserver I've been using lighttpd which has served me pretty well, and is probably what I'll end up using unless there's better suggestions. This thread is mainly to see if there's something even better, since I haven't shopped around for httpds for several years

I use cherokee which supports Ruby rather well and is quite lightweight, too.

Finally they added my Vim cleanup to the "official" list.  
(Whch was the only reason for me to switch to BleachBit every now and then.)

Still, it seems to be missing in CCEnhancer?

« on: November 17, 2010, 07:43 AM »

I just tried it and went back to the old version. When I close the window of v14, the process keeps running on the background and I need to manually kill it using the regular windows explorer.

-worstje (November 17, 2010, 06:25 AM)

I remember v12 to have done that, too. Or was it the tray icon functionality?

It was just an unobtrusive hint for the mapping abilities... so when it comes to WordStar bindings, Vim does that well, too.
