I agree, keeping it from possibly refreshing while I'm reading would make this much more useful.

Tho I'd most likely start using it again if it only did the auto-refresh when my "reading list has no unread items."

That would be useful so I wouldn't have to manually refresh each time I check back.

Works exactly as advertised: auto-refreshes the articles list when there are new articles available.

Just one problem... I found it often refreshed while I was in the middle of reading an article, and when the refresh was done, the half-read article was gone.

I'll stick with my trusty keyboard-shortcuts: j for next articke, K for previous, V to view,,, and R to refresh. (type a questionmark for the full list)

I don't understand what this script does that the site doesn't do, can you explain it better?
