TheBuzz
TheBuzz is a basic, small, command-line RSS and Atom News feed reader written in Perl. It bears a passing resemblence to the pine mail client. It's also designed to run in an internet-connected environment (i.e. not offline) - offline caching may be something I add later. TheBuzz 0.2 has been successfully tested on Mac OSX 10.3.5 and Debian Sarge.
