Why dont we have our own news reader without resorting to wine??

'Sorry - I meant to type "Knode," not Qnode.

Thanks I was wondering about that.

Looks good to me looks like its a totally manual setup so what I need is a good list of these alt.special.interest news groups to search through. Suggestions??

I suggest you use 'pan' instead. It is on the SuSE pro distribution. From my point of view pan is a much more mature product. Knode works but is far less intuitive in use. -- Regards, Graham Smith ---------------------------------------------------------

If you use gnome you may want to check out straw (its got a gtk interface), its not part of the distro but has a nice interface, and I'm sure there are some rpm's out there. I used to use newsreaders until I discovered google news alerts :"), back in my gentoo days. On Mon, 28 Jun 2004 22:35:12 -0700, Robert Pollard wrote:

I was wondering is there anything for linux that is comparable to

Newsbin (http://www.newsbin.com) or Newsleecher (http://www.newsleecher.com). I know there's PAN but I like the fact

with

downloads and priority can be adjusted. Knode, doesn't take say all

I know this isn't the coolest of solutions but XEmacs & Emacs both have a newsreader available.

Just a thought.
