The old Pan DID do this, like any reasonable newsreader should. But in their wisdom the developers actually *removed* this expected feature in the new C++ Pan. So if you want it, "upgrade" to old Pan. I posted some time ago requesting this feature be put back. Looks like it hasn't been. I hate to whine about any useful open source project, but the field of available linux newsreaders is quite small and on this one development is certainly slow .... Looks like I might have to be trying XNews via wine, though I have an aversion to not being able to run native linux apps. Is there a need to add developers to the team, presumably fluent in C++? If so, has there been a call for volunteers? ____________________________________________________________________________________ You rock.
