SFEED_UPDATE(1)		    General Commands Manual	       SFEED_UPDATE(1)

NAME
       sfeed_update -- update feeds and	merge with old feeds

SYNOPSIS
       sfeed_update [sfeedrc]

DESCRIPTION
       sfeed_update  writes TAB-separated feed files and merges	new items with
       the items in any	existing files.	 The items are stored as one file  per
       feed in the directory $HOME/.sfeed/feeds	by default.  The directory can
       be changed in the sfeedrc(5) file.

OPTIONS
       sfeedrc
	       Config file.  The default is $HOME/.sfeed/sfeedrc.

FILES READ
       sfeedrc
	       This  file  is evaluated	as a shellscript in sfeed_update.  See
	       also the	sfeedrc(5) man page for	a detailed description of  the
	       format and an example file.

FILES WRITTEN
       feedname
	       TAB-separated  sfeed(5)	format	containing all items per feed.
	       The sfeed_update	script merges new items	with this file.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
       SFEED_UPDATE_INCLUDE
	       When set	to "1" sfeed_update can	be sourced as a	script,	but it
	       won't run the main() entry-point.

LOGGING
       When processing a feed it will log failures to stderr and  non-failures
       to stdout in the	format:

	   [HH:MM:SS] feedname message

EXIT STATUS
       The sfeed_update	utility	exits 0	on success, and	>0 if an error occurs.
       If any of the feeds failed to update then the exit status is non-zero.

EXAMPLES
       To update your feeds and	format them in various formats:

	   # Update feeds
	   sfeed_update	"configfile"
	   # Format to a plain-text list
	   sfeed_plain ~/.sfeed/feeds/*	> ~/.sfeed/feeds.txt
	   # Format to HTML
	   sfeed_html ~/.sfeed/feeds/* > ~/.sfeed/feeds.html
	   # Format to HTML with frames
	   mkdir -p somedir && cd somedir && sfeed_frames ~/.sfeed/feeds/*
