Inkwell, now on Emacs

I want to do more to support blogrolls and recommendations between the apps. Need to explore this more. For the API, there is a very sparse help page here which I’ll be expanding later this week.

That was Manton Reece in response to my question about Inkwell, an RSS feed reader. And with that sparse help page, Gemini sucesfully completed my request to create “Inkling”, an Emacs client for Inkwell which uses Microbe to compose posts with quoted text, as I’m doing now. It can even bookmark posts using micro.blog bookmarking service.

Screenshot of an Emacs window with a list of RSS feeds in the top third, an open post by Manton Reece in the middle, and this post in edit mode at the bottom.

Dave Winer wondered how he would fit Inkwell into his life. Thanks to Manton’s continued use of open APIs — and with much help from Gemini — I don’t have such dilemmas.
