Overview

Note: NNW Unread Menu is no longer under development, but is still available as a legacy download.

NNW Unread Menu is a simple menubar application which can provide you with a quick and easy way to see how many headlines are marked as unread in the popular RSS reader NetNewsWire. Not only can you view the total number of unread headlines right in the menubar, but with one click, you can view which subscriptions are unread and how many articles are in each.

i don’t remember giving this 2 ½ stars. I don’t recommend using this if it even still works. NNW is a nice rss reader and i use it, but this menu bar item i certainly do not use.

Excellent little program. Apparently it doesn't support NNW Lite as NNW Lite doesn't support AppleScript. So, not much this program can do about it. However, this results in an excellent alternative to the less-than-stable RSS Menu.

Just a quick note... the scripts involved with the application only work with the full version of NetNewsWire, not NetNewsWire Lite. I will get this fixed as quickly as possible, and until then, I apologize for the inconvenience. Thanks.
