[comp.emacs] novice questions

I am new in the USENET world, so please forgive any mistakes.
Few questions:
1. Is it possible to get a summary of articles in USENET via Emacs 'rnews' mode ?
2. Does anybody out there have a lisp code to display line numbers in a buffer
   (similar to 'set nu' in vi (oops, blashphemy) ?
3. What is 'picture mode' ? I have the rel. 18 manual, and I did not find a
   meaningful explanation for that.

Thanks in advance. Direct mail would also be welcome:
