NetNewsWire is the Mac application that satisfies my feed reading needs. In August 2003, with Version 1.0.4b3, Brent applied Web Kit and custom CSS stylesheets to task of presenting feed content in NetNewsWire. Since then I've been tweaking custom styles for my own use and amusement. This project page brings them together.
As a web designer with a print background I hate what happens to text on flexible (or fluid or jello or just sloppy!) web pages. It is impossible to set a line-height with CSS that will suit both a narrow and a wide formats of the page. Generally we have to compromise with something in the middle and hope that’s how most people will see it. Why not use a little JavaScript to make line spacing relative to line width?
