May 31, 2019 I'm in my 50s now. When NetNewsWire 1.0 shipped, I was 35. Did I think things could get better with age? I'm so glad to be wrong.:). How fortunate am I! Today is the day NetNewsWire 5.0 alpha one goes out — and it's NetNewsWire, not something else, and it has a NetNewsWire icon. And my Bendii Syndrome has taken me over entirely. News aggregator that runs in Microsoft Outlook. Site features product overview, online tutorial and trial download. NetNewsWire 3.0 was released today and it has a new user interface. Someone should update the screenshot in the article. SeanMooney 20:06, 5 June 2007 (UTC) I asked the editor who provided the shot of 2.0.1 to do the same for 3.0. I'll do it myself if he can't get to it. Krakatoa Katie 21:51, 5 June 2007 (UTC) iPhone OS version.

Larry from ScriptingForLawyers.com has submitted a much-improved version of the NetNewsWire to del.icio.us script. His version uses the cURL terminal command to post to del.icio.us in the background, so it works without the help of Safari or Firefox. It asks you for your username and password the first time you run the script, then stores it to a preference file thereafter. Furthermore, it includes error handling to alert you if your NetNewsWire headline did not post correctly.
Here's the improved script:
[Update: Larry and I have improved the script even further to fix a bug with the preference file, and to add a prompt to ask you your desired default tags the first time the script is run. If you want to later change your username/password or default tags, just trash the preference file named
com.larrystaton.toread.txt
in your ~/Library/Preferences/
folder, and it will ask you again for this information the next time the script is run.][Update 2: As Mario pointed out in the comments, the script would get into trouble when the default tag was left completely blank (it would ask for your username/password/default tag every time). The new version of the script avoids this problem by inserting a space after the default tags. I simply changed
set tagsString to tags
to set tagsString to tags & ' '
