Re: "Newsboat RSS reader acting weird"

They have to be restarted but with the new enviroment loaded, as most programs usually don't try to detect the shell you're using and set a inotify to add new enviroment variables, so new variables won't apply, (unless you go weird routes like adding the variable into environ manually to each process)

— I'm replying to this comment specifically, and bubble doesn't make that clear.

Newsboat RSS reader acting weird — Hi there! Any Newsboat users here? I'm trying to force myself to learn how to use the Terminal, and Newsboat is the first app I installed... But there's a command that doesn't seem to work... Hitting Shift + E is supposed to open the urls file in a text editor, but nothing happens... As I'm very new to all of this, I have no idea what I should be looking for in order to fix this... Any ideas please? I'm on an Ubuntu based machine... Thank you in advance....
