In case anyone else is tempted: I tried to add the "new" page, and additional pages of the main results - however the API that drives this ( http://api.ihackernews.com/ ) has been failing to return those pages for several hours now. I'm assuming that the functionality was dropped at some point...
Hmm, bad news. I'll work on polishing the new proxy support that is almost done in another branch, so we'll be able to use more reliable services for now.
And then, when I have some time, I'll write the full thing on lisp! Thanks for the heads up!
