I just stumbled upon a strange bug in rn: I read the 'control' group, with a KILL file that says /cancel/h:j so I can still see the interesting stuff. When -t is not set, rn shows the article which are junked, then says "Type space to continue" (actually, any key will do). If by that time more articles have arrived, it says "5 more articles have arrived, looking for more to kill..." and starts the KILLing all over again. Well, I just spent a horrible 10 minutes trying to get out of this KILL file, while sri.com kept supplying thousands of 'cancel' messages to the spurious articles it had sent - the cure can sometime be worse than the disease... -- Amos Shapir amos@nsc.com National Semiconductor (Israel) P.O.B. 3007, Herzlia 46104, Israel Tel. +972 52 522261 TWX: 33691, fax: +972-52-558322 34 48 E / 32 10 N (My other cpu is a NS32532)
