However rn displays articles that have already been read in >other news groups. If you mark articles as "read" with the 'c' command, rn apparently does not mark the xref'd articles as read in all groups in which they appear. I'm undecided as to whether this is a bug or a feature. Incidentally, I couldn't tell from your posting which patchlevel of news and/or rn you're at; news 2.11 is at patchlevel 8 or so, rn 4.3 is at patchlevel 40 or so. -- Rich Kulawiec, rsk@j.cc.purdue.edu, j.cc.purdue.edu!rsk PUCC News Administrator
