Feature Request:Save multiple feed articles into .txt file, newest first #83

Saving a article into a single file is already implemented. It can be used by simple pressing the s key. I would like to export multiple feeds (or all feeds) at once. With this feature, you could simply copy a .txt file to your ebook reader daily for offline reading of news.

Thinking further, a command line option would be cool, like:

$ newsbeuter --sync-into-file news.txt

which prepends everything thats new on top of this file for reading. A maximum size of 1MB could be defined, and the oldest news gets removed from the file.

+1 I've been using newsbeuter for 3 months now and was surprised when I was unable to save multiple articles from a search result.

"insert" key to select articles would be useful.
