Presumably, it's any text enclosed in [brackets] in a news item or comment. (hence all the numeric tags from code)

Specifically, anything that matches the case-insensitive regex \[[0-9A-Z_\.\-]+\] and there's already a surprising number which provide useful searches.

Can't wget the rss feed (nice addition) or add to browser

The former may be fun with ampersands in shell commands. Try double quotes around the URL. The latter is a world of pain. What version of what browser are you using?

Fox3, I'll try it with quotes with wget. I like the idea of personalised RSS feeds.
