Newsbeuter websocket pipe

This project allows you to use newsbeuter on a remote server, but open articles locally. Initially, I forwarded firefox over X11, but this ended up being too slow. Instead, we can run a websocket server that pushes urls to our browser. This has the benefit of being browser-agnostic, and works well eg on Chromebooks.

#Setup

pip install mod-pywebsocket

and configure newsbeuter to use $BROWSER for opening articles.

browser "eval $BROWSER"

Running nbws will start a background server, print out it's URL, and launch newsbeuter. Pressing O should open articles locally.
