 # Set as a cron job to check for new RSS entries for newsboat.
 # If newsboat is open, sends it an "R" key to refresh.
 
+# Bail if a previous run is still going. With the fulltext filter a reload now
+# takes ~17s+, so back-to-back cron ticks could overlap: a second `-x reload`
+# can't grab the cache.db lock, and the rm/signal races blank the status bar.
