NAME

       gpo - Text mode interface of gPodder

SYNOPSIS

       gpo [--verbose|-v] [COMMAND] [params...]

DESCRIPTION

       gpo  is  the  text mode interface of gPodder. Run it without any arguments to start the interactive shell
       (see below). Use "gpo help" to get a list of supported commands.

       gpo can be used to manage podcasts from the command line without having to start gPodder. It can also  be
       used to automate tasks such as downloading or updating feeds.

       The database and files are the same as used by gpodder(1).

INTERACTIVE SHELL MODE

       If  you  run  "gpo"  without  COMMAND  it will enter its interactive shell mode. From there, you can type
       commands directly. When readline is available, this shell supports completion using <Tab>.  Podcast  feed
       URLs are also completed for commands that take the URL of a podcast as argument.

       Some  commands  (e.g. search and toplist) will provide a query in interactive shell mode (to subscribe to
       podcasts). These queries will not be shown when started directly from the command line.

COMMAND PREFIXES

       For all commands, you can use only the first few characters instead of the full command, as long  as  the
       command is unique. If not, gpo will show you all matching commands and the shortest prefix of each.

       Please  note  that  future  additions  to  the  command set could change the shortest prefix of any given
       command, so usage of the full command in scripts is recommended (e.g. use "gpo update" and not  "gpo  up"
       in scripts and cronjobs).  The short command prefixes are mostly useful for interactive usage.

EXAMPLES

       gpo
           Enter interactive shell mode

       gpo update && gpo download
           Check for new episodes, then download all new episodes

       gpo search linux outlaws
           Search the directory for podcasts named "linux outlaws"

       gpo youtube http://youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0
           Print download URL of a YouTube video to stdout
