Java RSS Ticker is a Java RSS and Atom Ticker/Aggregator/Reader. I had checked out a number of tickers that look pretty as they scroll etc., but took a lot of CPU cycles and cost money. I wanted a simple, OS independent, ticker so I wrote this one in Java.

Requirements:
Java 1.4.2 or later

Usage:

java -jar JRSST-1.8.1.jar [args] [URL...] where URL... is the list of RSS URLs to display.

Command-line arguments:

-n if you don't want the .jrsst initialization file read.
-i URL to read a JRSST initialization file other than the .jrsst one.
-o URL to read an OPML reading list.
-p seconds to change the time between changing the display from the default 10 seconds.
-v to be more verbose as to what is being read.

What's New in This Release:
One can now specify font characteristics on the command line using the--font=, --font-size=, and the --font-style= arguments.
