Aucf-cs.306 net.news utcsrgv!utzoo!decvax!duke!ucf-cs!whm Thu Jan 14 20:23:50 1982 I'd like to see... A way to send a news item to just one site, other than trying some kind of uux trick. Such a facility could be used to ask a question to all the users of particular site. For example, "What do you think of the CS program at..." I suppose that you would need an additional argument to specify a site, and the group that you specified would be the one used at the site. Another thing I'd like to see is a -f option to news that would allow a specification of a file name in /usr/spool/news. This way, when somebody says "See ucbvax.123", I could say: news -f ucbvax.123 Such a facility could also allow a list of names, e.g., news -f site.* so that all the news from a site could be seen. ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
