I have a patch to NET.exe that implements MODE READER

thus..

robert:/tmp/ka9q216d>diff -c nntpcli.c.old nntpcli.c                       19:02
*** nntpcli.c.old       Tue Dec  5 19:04:51 1995
--- nntpcli.c   Tue Dec  5 19:01:19 1995

                goto quit;
                }
  
+       /* Send mode reader */
+       usprintf (nntp->s, "MODE READER\n");
+       reply = getreply();
+         if (!((reply == 200) || (reply == 201) || (reply == 500)))
+               {
+               sprintf(buf2, "NNTP Bad reply after MODE READER (response was %d)",reply);
+               error (1, buf2);
+               goto quit;
+                 }
+ 
        /* Open nntp.dat */
  
        sprintf (buf1, "%s/nntp.dat", Newsdir);

I'm happy for this not to be rolled into the official release as DIS
don't require MODE READER however for my purposes I do and I'd like
somebody to take the current source tree apply the patch and mail me
the NET.exe so that I can test if it works.

I believe the current source tree lies at.

ftp.demon.co.uk:/pub/demon/ibmpc/dos/files/ka9q216d.zip

Malcom, I'd like to test this ASAP so I'm posting.
