	- the 0.7 .exe would be welcome, i should think, as i'm still
	using v0.3; and should john again find himself possessed of a
	sufficiency of that at once fabulous and copious free time,
	for the devotion of which to matters snewsish - snewsy? - he
	became renowned, i trust he will overcome his current attack
	of minimalism...

	- but no, snwsTune used to be found at www.roborat.demon.co.uk,
	and, i think i recall correctly, somewhere on ftp.demon.co.uk -
	which, alas, the current owners killed a while ago; it is needed
	by john's snews to get (or Get) an article that one decides one
	would rather not have missed through killfiling, and subsequent
	articles in what would otherwise remain a thread that fits one
	of one's news killfile rules such as, one cross-posted to three
	or more newsgroups (or whatever number has previously convinced
	one that thence no good can thereby come).

	- i'm not sure whether john's snews used it to delete articles
	individually that one has already collected, or no; i think it
	does, bicbw. i can, of course, check mods h & comments on this.

	- love, ppint.
