I am looking for an offline NEWS reader for the IBM PC.
Has anyone ever heard of such a beast?
I have access to a system that allows me to use their RN
interactively (no uucp or slip) but I pay on a hourly basis.
What I would like to do is to download all the news from RN like .-$:s filename
does and then read them with this program. I've been told that this exists for the macintosh, but I can't seem to locate a program for the PC.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
