#RSS Menu Extension for Safari ##(c) 2012-16 Calum Benson

Note: Stable branch (and probably the only useful one, at this point) is rssfeed-2.

###What Does It Do?

  • Adds a menu button to your Safari toolbar that lists autodiscovered feeds (per the RSS Autodiscovery Spec)
  • Also lists public playlist, subscription and favourites feeds when browsing a YouTube user or channel homepage. Obsoleted by YouTube API changes
  • Opens feeds either in your native news reader app (Vienna, Reeder, NetNewsWire etc.), or directly in Safari.
  • Toolbar button badge shows how many feeds available on current page.

###Planned features

  • Subscribe to feeds in Google Reader replacements like Feedly and Digg.

###Notes

  • Works with Safari v6 or later.
  • "Open in Application" feature requires that your application is registered with OS X as the default handler for feed:// URIs. Most of the popular apps do this, but some (e.g. RSSOwl) do not.
