	Hi all!,

	The problem I can't figure out is that I don't know any means to
	put all articles in a specified newsgroup to a single file with
	a one comman or GNU-macro.

	If I write normal kbd-macro to 
	a) go to article
	b) get article from NNTP
	--- next step does not work, see later... ---
	c) save article
	d) repeat steps eg. with ESC 500 <kbd-macro>

	The macro jams after step b) because it takes time to retrieve 
	articles from NNTP server.

	If someone could simply present me a lisp-script (hook, whatever)
	which has a programmed delay between b) and c) then it migth work.
	Obviously there must be smarter ways to do it: wait until the NNTP
	transfer is done..., but I'm not able to program with elisp.

	You can use my email address, since I'm not always able to read
	all articles posted. ( that's why I need THAT script :-)
