trn

trn

[Rob Wheatley]

trn is a text mode news reader.  It is similar to slrn, but I find it
much nicer to use.

After some effort (I am not familiar with compiling Unix programs) I
have been able to compile and run trn under Windows NT using the Cygwin
tools.  

Although there are a few minor bugs, trn can read and post articles.

I have posted a description of the procedure I followed at:
http://www.ucalgary.ca/~rwheatle/trn.html

I hope these instructions are helpful.  I would also appreciate it if
someone could double check that I managed to point the Configure script
to all the relevant libraries.

Hmm.  I tried accessing my page from the three computers I have access
to, and it worked with all of them.  Hopefully I haven't made some
stupid mistake with file permissions or something.

You could also try
http://www.acs.ucalgary.ca/~rwheatle/trn.html
(Different address, but gets you to the same page.)

And I just uploaded the page to:
http://www.telusplanet.net/public/rwheat/trn.html
so you could try this as well.   

Hope this helps.
