#+TITLE: elfeed-summary
The package provides a tree-based feed summary interface for [[https://github.com/skeeto/elfeed][elfeed]]. The tree can include individual feeds, [[https://github.com/skeeto/elfeed#filter-syntax][searches]], and groups. It mainly serves as an eaiser "jumping point" for elfeed, so you can start a search for a feed or a group of feeds with a single action.

Inspired by [[https://github.com/newsboat/newsboat][newsboat]].

Also, this variable is not validated by any means, so wrong values can produce somewhat cryptic errors. Sorry about that.

Also take a look at =M-x customize-group elfeed-summary= for the rest of available options.
