Hi developers of newsfox,

i have been using newsfox for quite a while now.
for every new releases / updates, ialways hope to see the ability to
manual group
the feeds to our likings but each time i was a little disappointed.

I am wondering if it is possible to implement the function to manually
group the feeds
into users created folders? Also, it would be really nice if users can
navigate through the 3 windows using the arrow keys only.
for example when in the  feeds column, just hit right to go to the group
feeds there users can use the up / down keys to browse throught the feeds.
Hitting right key again will bring u into the content of the feeds where
again, using the up and down keys will allow users to browse the page.

those are just my 2 cents input.
thank you newsfox team for such a wonderful plugin.
regards
terence

Not quite sure what you mean - feeds can be organized in user created and named groups.  If you mean creating groups of groups(subfolders), see https://www.mozdev.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=17242.

The right arrow does other things already in XUL trees.  Tab is the standard way to switch which element has the focus.  There is a little problem when no article has the focus, for example when you first switch to a new feed.  The first time you hit tab, the articles will get the focus, but nothing is selected.  Here is one way to get around this: hit tab once, and then use control-up and control-down-arrow to move the focus among the articles.  When you want to select an article, hit control-right-arrow.
