I'm rather new to the News software so sorry if this is in the wrong group. I've had News2.11 running for about 2 weeks now and everything is fine. Beginning last evening after reading through an unusually large amount of new news I noticed when I finished with the last newsgroup, I didnt get the prompt "Last article [qfr]" but itstead it went immediately to the "$" prompt. Checking the .newsrc file showed it had been promperly updated. Tonight there were only a few updates to a couple groups, yet still after reading through them, I go right to the prompt. If I start a new user and use "readnews", I get the prompt at the end. Can anyone shed some light on this ? Is it normal...correctable ??? Thanks in advance. BTW: Im running on an AT-class machine using Microport Sys V/AT 2.2U John -- John Gayman, WA3WBU | UUCP: uunet!wa3wbu!john 1869 Valley Rd. | Packet: WA3WBU @ AK3P Marysville, PA 17053 | Voice: (717) 957-3224
