I have seen a lot of talk about news readers for MS-DOS. Could someone send me what they know about the various news readers. Things I want to know are: - What communications does it need? (pc-nfs,packet tcpip,none) - How good is it? How much like RN does it work like? - How configurable is it? If I get enough responce, I will post a summary to comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc. Mail is preferable. Thanks in advance. +-----------------+---------------------------+-----------------------------+ | Bill Poitras | Polygen Corporation | {princeton mit-eddie | | (bill) | Waltham, MA USA | bu sunne}!polygen!bill | | | FAX (617)890-8694 | bill@polygen.com | +-----------------+---------------------------+-----------------------------+

Instead of QVT Net? thanks -- +--------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Barry B.
