Hi, I am looking for software to let me read news remotely on a VMS machine, where the server software will be Cnews running on Unix (Sun machines). It would be ideal if this software had the same user interface as "rn". Any suggestions or ideas on software or where to look? Thanks, -- TTYL & TANSTAAFL ---------------- Walter Moore Internet: zwbm07@hou.amoco.com

Seems to work pretty good, and the commands are fairly similar to rn (although RN is still MUCH better). It does have all the normal commands just like rn, they just use different keys for some of them. ___________________________________________________________________ / |CIVIR1070@ucsvax.sdsu.edu| Q: Is there a UNIX FORTRAN optomizer? \ \ | Scott Ellis | A: Yeah, "rm *.f" _ / / |_________________________| _ // Amiga \ \_______________________________________________\X/_________________/
