Has anyone else used this rss reader or is anyone else using canto-curses?
The ncurses interface in that package and espeak appear not to like each
other very much.
snownews isn't as able to read rss and atom feeds as canto-curses and
snownews leaves newsbeuter eating its dust.
If I cannot get canto-curses working any better I have an option of moving
all of my feeds into emacs newsticker but wanted to ask about this here
first before giving up on canto-curses.

Well Jude, while I am not familliar with that package, one I was introduced to
several years ago was:
rss2email was started by Aaron Swartz, and is currently maintained by
W. Trevor King. For a more complete list of contributors, see the
__contributors__ list in rss2email/__init__.py.
I think however, you run it with "r2e" Anyway, I have several news feeds
arriving daily.

I've tried multiple news-readers, including GUI (Liferea was the
least-bad of them) and terminal (snownews, newbeuter, raggle, and
canto). I finally settled on rss2email which just puts the RSS
items into my email inbox, allowing me to use whatever email program
I want for reading them (and more importantly, filter them).
