• Feedly now decodes feed titles from HTML to plain text.
• New CLI "-w" option to force "nowebengine" behavior even in standard "webengine" RSS Guard builds.

• "nowebengine" text-based article viewer now can display images. (#583)
• "nowebengine" text-based article viewer now can act as VERY SIMPLE web browser. It displays webpages in a simpler text-like fashion, it can follow hyperlinks, context menu offers more actions like downloading of links etc.
• Gmail plugin now has better e-mail viewer which also allows to "Forward" e-mails. It will be extended in the future even more. Also, e-mails are now sent in "HTML" mode.
• Data can be optionally exported to OPML 2.0 without icons. (#685)
• Added button into tray icon context menu to allow show/hide of main RSS Guard window. (#679)

• Some UI strings updated, translations updated too.

Fixed:

• Dynamic libraries are now properly "linked" in Mac OS X build. (#663)

4.2.0
