I read my news on a VM system (our NeXT SysAdmin isn't sure he can justify the
cost of a newfeed to the pursestring gods). I would like to save the news
articles as ASCII text and then FTP them to my NeXT account and then read them
as flatfile articles, but I can't seem to set the files correctly in
Preferences. Can I, in fact, use NewsGrazer without having an nntp connection?

If not, is there a site (maybe Freenet?) where I can login and capture Usenet
articles to something that NewsGrazer understands.

Any advice would be appreciated. I'm sick of NetNews and I'm sick of reading
articles in ASCII (essentially non-News) format offline.
