Carsten,

That capability isn't currently present. Once curn "sees" an item, it marks
it as seen and won't show it again. I'm considering additional
cache-related configuration items for the next release of curn, however, so
feel free to suggest specific new features that you'd like to see in that
area.

It sounds like you'd be happy with something like this:

     maxItemsToShow: 40
     dontCacheItemsNewerThan: 2 days

or some such. Is that an accurate interpretation of your original question?
