3 gpo \- Text mode interface of gPodder
7 [\fICOMMAND\fR] [\fIparams...\fR]
11 gpo is the text mode interface of gPodder. Run it without any arguments to
12 start the interactive shell (see below). Use "gpo help" to get a list of
15 gpo can be used to manage podcasts from the command line without having to
16 start gPodder. It can also be used to automate tasks such as downloading or
19 The database and files are the same as used by \fIgpodder(1)\fR.
21 .SH INTERACTIVE SHELL MODE
23 If you run "gpo" without \fICOMMAND\fR it will enter its interactive shell
24 mode. From there, you can type commands directly. When readline is available,
25 this shell supports completion using <Tab>. Podcast feed URLs are also
26 completed for commands that take the URL of a podcast as argument.
28 Some commands (e.g. \fIsearch\fR and \fItoplist\fR) will provide a query in
29 interactive shell mode (to subscribe to podcasts). These queries will not be
30 shown when started directly from the command line.
34 For all commands, you can use only the first few characters instead of the
35 full command, as long as the command is unique. If not, gpo will show you all
36 matching commands and the shortest prefix of each.
38 Please note that future additions to the command set could change the shortest
39 prefix of any given command, so usage of the full command in scripts is
40 recommended (e.g. use "gpo update" and not "gpo up" in scripts and cronjobs).
41 The short command prefixes are mostly useful for interactive usage.
