Hey, I just thought of something. Does anyone have a program
(maybe called "xnews" or "xnn" or "xrn") that would read the
network news such as this?
It would be great if someone could let me know.
Thanks in advance...

There is such a thing, I am using it right now to reply to you. It is called xrn, and you can ftp it from shambhala.berkeley.edu. It's pretty good. This is news.

I have, in my .twmrc, the following: "Read News" !"xterm -T 'Usenet News' -geometry 80x40+120-120 -e nn &" as one the menu options, which works just fine...the window vanishes once you're done etc. Haven't seen xnn-like stuff, though....
