What I really want is a reader view on the terminal -- something that cuts out all layout, formatting and images and shows me the raw article text in a fixed with font. Ditto for comments. I've already tried the "hn" [1] command line tool, but it doesn't strip out navigation menus, heads and footers from articles. It's also a bit slow.
