I tried reading it, then reading \it with CTRL/X (decrypted), and then saving it, but it saves \it to a file in ROT 13. Please help. Between the following `cut-here' lines is a macro definition for `*'. I've split the macro into 2 lines, because there appear to be mailers which don't like lines much longer than 80 chars. :-( When you put the macro into a file called `.rnmac' in the directory in which your `.newsrc' resides, you must join the 2 lines and delete the `\' at the end of the first line; `rn' doesn't know about continuation lines. :-( ----------8<----------8<----------8<----------8<----------8<---------- * %(%m=[ap]?|rot13 >> \ %(%"Decrypt to: [%p/Decrypted] "=^\(..*\)$?%1:%p/Decrypted)^J:*) ----------8<----------8<----------8<----------8<----------8<---------- The `rot13' program is the following shell script, to be put in your PATH.
