- Here is my wish list for Waffle, mostly for rn! ...
-
- - A 'c' (catch-up) command at newsgroup level prompts. Then you
- won't have to read a message just to 'c' catch-up on all the
- messages.
-
- - Support for reading old messages in newsgroups with no new
- articles. I use /fast, so it all goes woosh and I have to
- resort to the READ command to get anywhere!
-
- - Support for 'p', 'P' (and probably 'n', 'N') at newsgroup level
-
- - A 'End of newsgroups, what next?' prompt to go with the above
-
- - Perhaps, instead of "Post here?" it could be expanded to
- "read (yn)?" or whatever.... it would be nice to be able to
- backtrack..
-
- One non-rn request... when using feeds file entry with a "/batch=fido"
- (or other similar), would it be possible to keep messages posted by
- rnews (as compared to Waffle) from posting into the file of the
- name 'fido'? My gateway has to constantly read this file and CHECK
- the news articles to see if they've been gated first... pain in the
- kazoo.
-
- Thanks for everything Tom!
