I think it provides a better user interface than "vnews" but that is just my personal opinion. I think it is better than notes, both from the standpoint of options and interface, and from the point of view of system administration -- it is totally compatible with existing 2.10.? news and installs with little fuss. -- Gene "sometime in 1986" Spafford The Clouds Project, School of ICS, Georgia Tech, Atlanta GA 30332 CSNet: Spaf @ GATech ARPA: Spaf%GATech.CSNet @ CSNet-Relay.ARPA uucp: ...!{akgua,decvax,hplabs,ihnp4,linus,seismo,ulysses}!gatech!spaf
