I have just placed the FTP Software shell for Trumpet newsreader up on 

  tasman.cc.utas.edu.au(131.217.10.1)

at the location

  pub/pc/trumpet/abi-version/newsftp.zip

I have had no way of testing this out, and it is offered as is.

Here is the documentation file accompanying it.
==================================================================

Newsx is a wrapper program for Peter Tattam's TRUMPET news reader.
Newsx enables reading/posting of news using FTP Software's PC-TCP kernel.
Newsx is compatible with FTP Software kernels 2.0 and 2.1.

A batch file that reads news on my system:

\pctcp\ethdrv
newsx
\pctcp\inet unload

During news/mail posting error messages from the FTP kernel are randomly
scattered on the screen. Posting seems to work properly. Reading works just
fine.

The distributed name of the abi-version of Trumpet is newsabi.exe.  This may
need to be renamed to news.exe or news2.exe
