    Here's a new release of "baudotrss", my program for printing
RSS feeds, including news, on Baudot Teletype machines.

    This version is much easier to run on Windows than the
old version.  It's one EXE file, with no need to install
Python first.  (It's really the same program, just packaged
up as one file.)  This is the program we use at steampunk
conventions.

Program:

https://github.com/John-Nagle/baudotrss/releases/download/3.1.1/baudotrss.exe

This is normally run from a command line, and you have to give
it a config file to tell it about the serial port and speed.
See the instructions.

Instructions:

https://github.com/John-Nagle/baudotrss/blob/master/README.md

It should work on Windows 7 and later. It may work on Windows XP,
but it hasn't been tested there.

The default configuration prints news from the Reuters RSS feed.

Pre-release version.  Please test and report bugs. Thanks.
