> NEWSRDR V4.8-6, NETWORKING, A VMS Mail-like USEnet NEWS reader'                                             [20-JUN-1995]     D    NEWSRDR is an NNTP client program for VMS systems running CMU-TekC    TCP/IP, TGV MultiNet, DEC's VMS/ULTRIX Connection, or any TCP/IP =    package supported by the NETLIB network interface library.      ?    NNTP is the Network News Transfer Protocol, which is used to H    communicate USENET news over TCP/IP. Since many systems cannot affordI    the disk space to store all net news locally, this program can be used H    to communicate with a cooperating news server system to read and postD    net news. News articles are fetched on an as-needed basis and are>    stored on the client system only while they are being read.     B    NEWSRDR is not a port of UNIX-based news readers. It is writtenH    strictly for VMS and provides an interface that VMS users should findD    reasonably comfortable. Most of the commands in NEWSRDR should be    familiar to VMS MAIL users.     H    NEWSRDR is written entirely in C. NEWSRDR can be used with any TCP/IPI    package that supports a Berkeley socket library interface, or with any F    package supported by the provided NETLIB network interface library.G    NEWSRDR requires VAX/VMS V5.0 or later, or OpenVMS Alpha AXP V1.0 or 	    later.      F    Support for Japanese sites using Kanji in news articles is providedD    through the use of an installable library of character conversionF    routines which can be mapped in at run-time by NEWSRDR. C source isI    provided for the Kanji character code conversion routines. Support for G    username and mail address conversion routines is also provided, also *    through the use of shareable libraries.     B    Refer to the NEWSRDR documentation for specific system and user    requirements.     F      _________________________________________________________________        CONTACTING THE AUTHOR    H    NEWSRDR was written by Matt Madison.
