Hmmm... This is the main thing stopping me from using netsuite news full
time. Using it for the text groups I browse I have to:

1. Collect headers.
2. Select <Load All> for each of the 40 text-only groups I receive.
3. Disconnect and connect again (not sure if I have to do this bit).
4. Download news properly.

I find this a royal pain in the arse. On the other hand I can type
'NEWNEWS' and have Alex Mercer do it all automatically.

This also means there is no way to have an unattended connection.
I can't even go off and have a (long) dump because after a few minutes
it's got the headers and is sitting there bone-idle.

All I want is a way to tell the dratted program that yes I do want to
load everything in a specific newsgroup every time.

Other than that and a few crashes it seems like a nice little newsreader.

Russ.
