Package: knews (1.0b.1-21)

Graphical threaded news reader

Knews is an X11 based thread-oriented news reader. It is capable of representing threads as a graphical tree, represents quotations with different colors and much more.

Also included here is knewsd, a tiny NNTP daemon which can read news from a spool directory or even from a mail folder hierarchy, for use when you don't have a real server available. There is no guarantee that it will work with any client other than knews, so it is not packaged separately.
