NNTP based newsreader
In depth
A closer look at SLRN
SLRN is a powerful, easy to use, threaded internet newsreader for Unix, VMS, OS/2, and Win32 systems. It is highly customizable, permitting one to redefined keys, and includes a sophisticated macro language for further customization. In addition, SLRN provides full support for score files allowing one to design complex filters to sort or kill articles based on how well an article scores.
The distribution also includes a companion program called SLRNPULL that permits one to use slrn off-line. As the name suggests, slrnpull `pulls', or `sucks', a small newsfeed from an NNTP server, from which slrn will subsequently read.
