John / Stuart >>> I'd sort of hoped I could run Liferea directly with 
its profile on a network drive, as I do with Thunderbird - so there'd be 
no need to rsync.  Looks like it's not possible to change the Liferea 
configuration to do that.

But the solution you suggest is good:  I just do a 'before and after' 
rsync between whichever machine I'm using and a network drive.  And I 
liked your idea, Stuart, of using a bash alias to 'get' and 'put'. 
Neat.  (Of course, all my stuff is on my LAN, so no need to use ssh.)

Many thanks to all three of you for your time and trouble.
