[leafnode-list] leafnode, nn, text browsers
hi,
this question may sound a bit stupid for
many of you, but i've read the documentation
several times (even the faq on the web), tried
many things, so i have decided to bother you
a little.
after 2 hours, i managed to install and retrieve
some news from my favorite newsgroup. the point
is that i don't know how to browse the messages.
can you give advice on a linux news client for
text? can i read news with mutt? the distribution
i use is debian 2.2.
i tried to do it with nn, but it says: "can't
find active file". it sounds similar to a faq
on the faq, but with tin. i tried that solution
too. i know this is not a nn mail list, but i
don't know of another news text reader.
in short, 2 questions:
1. advice on a simple news text client / browser?
2. what is that nn error?
3. has any1 tried nn with leafnode? is nn a
well-suited news reader for leafnode, or is
it too complex and performant?
thanks in advance,
ps: i have some comments to do on the documentation,
which i find obscure in several points (for a
news administrador neophyte). i can volunteer to
write something if the coordinator finds it
necessary. otoh, the config file is excellently
self-documented, and in general, the documentation
is above linux average.
