[news.software.b] Is there a "newsstat" program out there?

mday@iconsys.icon.com (Matt Day) (10/29/90)

Has anyone written a program to print the current activities of C news?  I'm
looking for something similar to the "lpstat" or "uustat" administration
programs that come with System V; ie: a program that prints information
about the current news queue (disk space, etc..), what (un)batching activity
(if any) is going on, etc....  Perhaps a simple shell (perl?) script could
extract this information from the various log files?  If anyone has already
made something like this (or if something like this comes with C news and I
just haven't heard about it), please let me know.

Thanks.
