Is there any way to create more than one .newsrc file containing a common
set of news groups to enter, and go into News using any one of the different
newsrc files?

Folks moving off of Notes used to use "notes -f thisfile" or "notes -f thatfile"depending on which set of groups they wanted to read.  For example, all the
hp.* groups in on file and all the alt.* groups in another.

Or should these guys just put their groups in a special order inside the
group selection menu and leave it at that?

Thanks in advance,
