About 3KB News Reader:
Simple newsreader for Terminal written in REBOL.

To run the newsreader, you must have the REBOL/Core interpreter installed. Get the interpreters for BeOS 4 and above for PowerPC and x86 at REBOL Technologies.

You must also have the nntp.r protocol file installed in your home directory. The nntp.r file is packaged with REBOL/Core when you download REBOL/Core from the page mentioned above.

To run the news reader:

Place 3KBnewsreader.r in your home directory.
Launch Terminal.
Type "rebol %3KBnewsreader.r" and follow the command prompts.

You will have to enter the name of your news server twice: once to the nntp.r protocol interpreter and again to the script itself.

News reader options include:

G - new group
N - next message
P - previous message
S - post message
Q - quit

I wrote this script in just over an hour. Please report all bugs to Ryan Christiansen.

Latest Version
   
Details about this version:
Fixed slight UI bug. The script now asks for a newsgroup name up front so that it can set parameters.
