Ahouxd.101 net.news utcsrgv!utzoo!decvax!ucbvax!ihnss!houxi!houxd!ml Fri Jan 15 20:51:26 1982 Suggested readnews enhancement I'd like to suggest a possible format to make readnews more "readable" and user-oriented: Upon typing readnews, the user is presented with the names of those newsgroups whom he/she has pending news from, in menu form. The user types the name of the newsgroup he/she is interested in, and then he/she is presented with a list of the titles of the newsitems in that newsgroup. One should also be able to move around in the different menu "levels". Perhaps a structure like this would make it easier to deal with the overwhelming amount of news one can get (even after optioning-out most of it in the .newsrc file) ---Maurice Lampell houxd!ml ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
