Has anyone ported any of the public-domain newsreaders (such as rrn) to an MS-DOS machine using Sun's PC-NFS Programmer's Toolkit? The toolkit looks pretty reasonable, though I've never used it. I'll probably have to do something about curses - a co-worker has already suggested the MKS implementation (which we have). Sound reasonable? I know that Univ. of Maryland has a whole suite of PC programs that includes newsreaders, but from what I've read, it lacks the ability to spool to remote printers, which PC-NFS does do. That's why we're planning on sticking with PC-NFS. Don Libes libes@cme.nist.gov ...!uunet!cme-durer!libes
