Groups version 0.20 is now available at:

  http://www.infotrek.demon.co.uk/freeware/groups/

This version fixes big problems for RISC OS 3.1 and low-res
users, amongst other things.

If you have problems with  strange groups appearing at the end
of your "new groups" listing, you should upgrade to Newsbase
version 0.59-pre-6 or greater, which has this problem fixed.
The Newsbase web page is found at

  http://www.hep.umn.edu/~allan/newsbase/


Changes from 0.17 (last public release) to 0.20
-----------------------------------------------

Improved behaviour:

 * Windows tidied and made more Style Guide compliant.
 * The main window can now be arranged vertically (configuration
   window option) with one list above the other, allowing more
   of the group name to be seen, and using less screen space.
 * Debugging output available by command-line option in case of
problems.
 * Now correctly "logs off" from Newsbase when it quits.

Bugs fixed:

 * Fixed initial window opening in low-res modes.
 * Fixed "Invalid WIMP operation in this context" when clicking
   on an item under RISC OS 3.1.
 * Fixed detection of the newsgroups list, and greys out unavailable
   options correctly.
 * Fixed clicking beyond the end of the list.
