-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Various people have been complaining for ages that the selective download facilities available in DOS/Windows newsreaders are not available in UNIX. Well a combination of slurp, obnews and bnr will soon make some this possible under UNIX (slurp and obnews are already out there, there is just the newsreader hook required). Now I'm not exactly sure how the newsreader end of things should work, thus I'd like a few people who know what they are doing to try out the alpha version of my newsreader and tell me what they think. So if your fairly compentent in UNIX (perferably having already used bnr) and feel like giving it a wiz gizz a bell and give it a try (Note also this is ALPHA software it may crash or do nasty things to quite a few things). -- Brian Blackmore http://www.wonderland.org/~eternal/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6 iQBVAgUAMOwt2MOjqDETwp/VAQEZ1gH/ZAgTv9VjSzX9vU16s/QBCWKwwc5/llJK wBowxB7+mif37DVrOnYtoWEIJ7nA4HQXSBJwH2H+UKEoNuNyN7JTWA== =51JF -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
