Keyboard shortcuts
NetNewsWire’s interface is easily navigable using keyboard shortcuts.
The most useful shortcuts are for reading articles: space to scroll articles and jump to the next unread one, or n to jump immediately to the next unread article. There’s also b to open the article in your browser, but the Return or Enter keys work too.
In-app list of keyboard shortcuts
A comprehensive list of NetNewsWire’s keyboard shortcuts is always accessible to you in NetNewsWire. Just choose Help → Keyboard Shortcuts in the menu bar.
The list opens in a separate window. You could even leave it open to remind you of the keys to press. You’ll be a NetNewsWire keyboard magician in no time.
Do I need to use the Command key?
No, the Command (⌘) key isn’t used for these keyboard shortcuts – just press the key by itself. Some have alternatives using the Command key, though.
