How do I use slrn?
I installed slrn and slrnpull, connected to my news provider and ran
slrnpull to pul 20 articles in the newsgroup com.os.linux.announce.
When I run slrn --spool, I get a screen with one row:
--> U 20 comp.os.linux.announce
When I press the space bar or return the 20 changes to 0 with a message at
the bottom of the screen "no unread articles found"
>From the help screens I cannot find out how to read the articles.
Further, I found that in the directory /var/spool/slrnpull/news there are
lots of articles that slrnpull pulled form the news provider because when
I installed it, it was configured to work with ppp-up. However, I cannot
read those articles. They do not show up when I use 'L' in slrn.
When I do a 'du' on those directories it reveals that it is using a large
amount of disk space.
How do I get to read a news article using slrn?
