BACKGROUND

This program reads XML and text-based "backend" headline syndication
files produced by several hundred producers of syndicated news
content. It gathers up the headlines from each producer and presents
them in a nice scrolling list. Clicking on a headline opens the full
story in your browser.  It is a clean and straightforward way to stay
in touch with the latest news from hundreds of news producers without
spending all day clicking.

Access to over 400 news sites is provided:
       * 43 are built in
       * 288 can be downloaded from the list at UserLand.com
       * 22 can be downloaded from the RSS Maker list
       * 74 can be downloaded from the XMLTree list

The user can add new sites, and the three syndication lists add more
content nearly every day. This version includes new support for the
syndication list kept at http://xmltree.com .
