gopher + rss question

[Gyula Weber]

Hello Everyone, I'd like to use my regular newsreader (newsboat) to read rss
from gopher if possible, but when I add a gopher:// link, it says unknown
protocol. I'm wondering is someone already have a solution, or I need to use a
bridge kindof thing which download the feed from gemini, and then somehow feed
it to newsboat ?

I'd appreciate any advice :)

You can use the execurl feature to call curl on your system which
hopefully has gopher support built in:

I would like to suggest using an alternative newsreader. sfeed is my
preference, it saves me having to do hacks like that to pull feeds
from gopher. It is also a very nice, featureful yet minimalist feed
reader.

No I am not the author. :)
