[net.news.b] News 2.6 bug

kiessig@sri-unix (07/12/82)

	I've noticed the following bug in B news 2.6, and am wondering if it was
fixed in 2.7 or later:  while doing a 'readnews', and after moving on to the
first article of the day in a newsgroup, if you give the '-' command to
go back to the previous message, when you finish with that previous message,
readnews skips over the entire news group that you were in when you gave
the '-' command.  If you later go back and do another 'readnews', you
discover that news has lost all sense of how many messages you've read
in the first (the one you wanted to read via '-') newsgroup.  You have
to start all over again, or go edit your .newsrc.
