I can't run trn on my shell machine.  After listing new groups,
whatever i do, it says "trn: out of memory!" and "Signal 0--bye bye".
It looks like a new group has knocked it out.  I'm surprised to not
see anything about this.  Is it just me?  How do i make it go?

    Check your process limits, the 'limits' command from csh or tcsh.
    Try doing 'unlimit' and then 'trn' again.

I have the same problem

The group name that crashes trn is:

alt.non-fan.flame.demon-flonk.karl-sequitur.edgar.horror.local-puck.stupidity-control.malden-butt.nose-cascade.werewolves.flonk-nuke.wee.flonk-harp.the.USA.heather-france.the-whales.usenet.smee.smee.smeeter.smee...
trn: out of memory!

Nope. unlimit does not fix it.  Most likely the problem is
caused by a buffer that is too small in the trn code.

That newsgroup isn't on the server, so you should edit your .newsrc
and remove it.
