Looks cool, you get an upvote from me. Does it offer a way to get the 'ask' page or others?

  No but great idea, if people like it, I'll add some more features.

This is cool, works just as expected. I added in a designer news feed also so you can do both.

Looks cool, not sure if it's working 100%. It prompts me to 'Type post number to open' but when I do, It just gives me the same prompt until I type 0 to exit.

  It should open up the URL in a browser when you choose a post, it looks like the 'open' command which I'm using is Mac only. What platform are you on? I'll look into fixing it.

    I'm running centOS. Thanks for looking into it, this is really cool, as I'm always checking HN in between spurts of writing code.

      Thanks man! I've pushed a new version to npm that should have support for Linux and Windows now. I've tested in Ubuntu but let me know if you have any more issues.

        Just tried it out. Works great now. Cheers!

When I type hn on my Mac running OSX Mavericks I get stream.js:94 throw er; // Unhandled stream error in pipe. ^ Error: CERT_UNTRUSTED at SecurePair.<anonymous> (tls.js:1365:32) at SecurePair.emit (events.js:92:17) at SecurePair.maybeInitFinished (tls.js:977:10) at CleartextStream.read [as _read] (tls.js:469:13) at CleartextStream.Readable.read (_stream_readable.js:323:10) at EncryptedStream.write [as _write] (tls.js:366:25) at doWrite (_stream_writable.js:226:10) at writeOrBuffer (_stream_writable.js:216:5) at EncryptedStream.Writable.write (_stream_writable.js:183:11) at write (_stream_readable.js:585:24)
