Probably the easiest way to do this is to create a entry in your "sys"
file for news unbatching:

archive:,,::cat >> /usr/spool/news/Archived

When the news program "rnews -U" is executed, any groups that you want will
be sent to "archive" and hence concatenated on the end of the file 
/usr/spool/news/Archived for later use.
