I am currently working on a new version with an improved way of configuration which should prevent this from happening

Thanks for adding screenshots!

I'm looking into a wrapper for that now.

pull request sent.

I merged your pull request Thanks! And probably we can improve it to be executed from js when the app exits ( I'm doing this with the status bar right now )

this is using the built-in browser without any titlebar or footer, right? just trying to understand what I could use this for - javascript, or what else?

thank you!

The app is based on the same javascript framework the browser is based on, but has a different interface code.

Thats exactly what I'm doing with it, a continous feed reader.

I've written a node.js application myhub which collects information from multiple sources like IMAP mail notifications, XMPP/Jabber messages, IRC channels/messages and RSS feeds and exposes them as a single event feed.
The feed can then be accessed via RSS (with filtering), a reader interface similar to google reader (which is not ready yet but in the works) and a simple news stream which I currently use on the kindle that updates as soon as a message arrives.
