GoodNews v1.5 - Mail and News reader for UMS
By Jean-Marc Xiume' 1996.
GoodNews is based on IntuiNews v1.4 Copyright © 1993-1996 by Matthias
Scheler and Markus Stipp, but they are neither responsible for it and
nor will offer support for it.
GoodNews uses MUI by Stefan Stuntz, see ReadMe.mui for more details.

Introduction
------------
GoodNews is a software that enables you to read and write e-mail and news
with UMS (Universal Message System). As IntuiNews's authors had the
kindness to give the sources of their program, I decided to go ahead with
developpement.
At first time, I added or corrected the details that I personnaly found
more important for a comfortable use. But the suggestion list remains
long and open... :)
To use GoodNews you either need to have Intuinews already installed in
your ums.config file, or to have its documentation, as I did't wrote a
whole new doc for GoodNews.
Main changes in version 1.5 (compared to IntuiNews 1.4)
---------------------------
- The article list displays the date and the name of the recipient name
(if available).
- Changed the header of the message window :
Displays the date, hour, and flags.
Moved the name of the current newsgroup (or folder) to the window title.
Allows to display a larger subject.
- French catalog with new strings, update of the German catalog.
- Possibility to followup a mail to a newsgroup.
- Cycle buttons to choose the messagebase scan mode (ScanMode1 and
ScanMode2) from the article list. That choice is local to this window
and doesn't change the choice made in the group list window.
- New MagicWorkbench icon by Eric Gérard.
- Added the MessageWindow config variable to ums.config, allowing you to
customize the message window : the lower buttons can be displayed on 2
lines as before, or on 1 line in order to gain some space in height.
- Added the ArticleWindow config variable to ums.config, allowing you to
customize the article list window : the lower buttons can be displayed
on 1 line as before, or on 2 lines in order to make the 2 new buttons
fit on small screens or with big fonts.
