podite - Command line podcast aggregator

SYNOPSIS

podite

DESCRIPTION

podite is a modern podcast manager for the command line. It supports searching and subscribing via itunes, nonblocking network requests and interactive selection of episodes.

Feeds can be disabled if you are currently not interested in them without loosing the information which episode you already downloaded. Episodes can either be skipped if you are not sure if you want to listen to it or hidden, so they will not clutter your screen.

cpanm git://github.com/mdom/podite.git
