Publisher's description

From Brana Bujenovic :

Rooster is RSS and ATOM Feeds Aggregator and News Reader for Windows. Some of the key features include: o Download articles per feed basis. o Simultaneously download articles for multiple feeds. o Edit and store download conditionals such as scanning intervals. o Store articles for off-line reading. o Manage (display/move/delete/flag) articles off-line. o Give names/aliases to feeds.

Version 1.0.5.7 may include Fixed a bug where some feed groups are not displayed on the Feeds window when feeds.ini imported from Feeds Eudora plugin. $ In case not all the groups are displayed just edit feeds.ini and delete the entire [Groups] section. This needs to be done only once. + Added status bar for the Article window. $ Beside standard status bar tips, this status bar also displays underlined URL sources. + Toolbar for the article window. $ Comment regarding unusual toolbar buttons: I wanted to add text for some buttons, and at the same time to keep 24x24 pixels button ratio. Some standard solutions suggest adding the text bellow or to the right from the button, but when I tried that I realized it looks horrible and takes too much space. So I found the solution in actually drawing words on the image, and keep both the ratio and the text. Hence unusual buttons. Hope you like it. + General-Options toolbar-button for the Feeds and Boxes windows.
