Yeah no doubt. Usenet is such a treasure trove of gems, how could one have
all of the fun without it? Xnews makes this easy and fun. The only bad
thing so far about xnews is that it chokes on freaking huge newsgroups like
when I use giganews on a large binary newsgroup. Not fun with xnews, not
fun at all. :P

Hmmmm, that is actually a decent and valid point. I am pretty poor as far
as money goes but even $5-10 would be *something* and would show
appreciation and support for this very fine piece of freeware software.
Might have to consider that.

Oh I like that keyboard stuff. Now I know why there are some die hard
WordPerfect users out there. When you do a lot of typing, having to drop
the keyboard, pickup the mouse, root through some menus, and then go back
to typing again is a pretty big bottleneck. I am really starting to like
the keyboard shortcuts a lot these days.

Take care Duck.
