    I have written a news threader (like that for trn) that creates a
thread file in the specified directories.  I've beaten on it pretty
heavily and it appears to be relatively immune to problems.  I'm
looking for someone who has a reasonable unthreaded news reader (I
haven't seen any threaded ones) that's interested in making use of my
threader.

    The executable and documentation is available to anyone; the
source is available to the authors of newsreaders.  The output is a
plain text file - I can provide routines to recreate the thread
structure in memory, or even to do all the thread manipulation and
call your browser when the appropriate file has already been opened.

    The threader is straightforward to use.  You specify one or more
directories, specify whether directory recursion is to be used (can
be turned on and off), and specify whether it should report what it's
doing (verbose mode).  It can also be set to purge old threads (a
thread with no current articles).

    If you're interested, please contact me via email (make sure the
reply-to hasn't been munged (see the .sig).  This site receives
alt.bbs.waffle, but not comp.bbs.waffle (sigh - it's an upstream
problem).

    P.S. I'm also interested in a reasonable mailer to go along with
that reader.  Am I asking too much?
