[comp.emacs] Bug fix for vn.el

karl@saqqara.cis.ohio-state.edu (Karl Kleinpaste) (04/27/88)

For those of you running the VN newsreader emulator in GNU Emacs,
here's a small bug fix to take care of the its inability to update
your .newsrc file properly when faced with the newsgroup
comp.lang.c++.  Thanx to tucker@polya.stanford.edu for pointing out to
me the function regexp-quote, which takes a string and returns a
regexp pattern string which will match the original string.
