- Kinda wrong, sorry. SFILE points to the output of sendbatches: a file that
- contains the file names of the news articles to be inspected for possible
- forwarding.
-
- Assigning SFILE --> S allows gatenews to execute for F in $S, thus inspecting
- each file given in SFILE.
-
- Is there a better way???
