[comp.emacs] rnews - summary needed

maz@ztivax.UUCP (Markus Zolg) (09/03/90)

Is there a rnews version with a summary function like for rmail? If
you read news using UNIX rn you can type e.g. "=" to get a summary and
"c" to purge all unread news. It would be nice to do so from emacs.

I don't know about rnews, but both GNUS and gnews have such
capabilities.  They're the more modern, generally preferred news
interfaces for GNU Emacs.
