keyboardan 49bcc06b56 Put rules on article titles.
Software words and website words are capitalized (or, as another
option, all caps), articles in the "tilde.club" category must have
most words capitalized (may capitalize word in case of doubt), and the
rest of the titles must have first word, of the title, capitalized,
with the rest of the (non-software) words, of the title, all
lowercase.

`ttrv` is a TUI Reddit client.
## Setup
### 1) Create the right Reddit app
* Go to [https://www.reddit.com/prefs/apps](https://www.reddit.com/prefs/apps) → **create another app…**
* **Type:** “installed app” (not “script”, not “web app”)
* **Redirect URI (must match exactly):** `http://127.0.0.1:65000/` **← note trailing slash**
* Copy the **client ID** (14-char string under the app name). *Installed app has no secret.*
### 2) Put creds in the right file
Create or edit `~/.config/ttrv/ttrv.cfg`:
```ini
[ttrv]
oauth_client_id = YOUR_CLIENT_ID
oauth_client_secret =
oauth_redirect_uri = http://127.0.0.1:65000/
oauth_redirect_port = 65000
autologin = True
persistent = True
```
* Make a starter config: `ttrv --copy-config`
* Refresh token is stored at: `~/.local/share/ttrv/refresh-token`
### 3) First login
Run `ttrv`, press **u**, authorize in the browser; it will callback to `http://127.0.0.1:65000/`.
## Clear any bad cached token
```bash
ttrv --clear-auth
# or
rm -f ~/.local/share/ttrv/refresh-token
```
## Common “invalid client id” causes
* Wrong app type (must be **installed app**)
* Redirect mismatch (anything other than **[http://127.0.0.1:65000/](http://127.0.0.1:65000/)**, missing slash, different port)
