What is the newsreader equivalent of mutt?
Rationale:
I use NNTP for gwene, gmane and asr. I'm sick of Gnus. I'm not sick of NNTP -- (esp. not interested in RSS clients). Years ago, happily migrated mail from gnus to mutt. So, something like mutt for NNTP is what I want.
PS: I notice mutt's debian/patches/ contains some NNTP patches that just need rebasing, maybe that's less icky than learning foorn...
slrn is pretty mutt like, not that I ever really used mutt all that much (I tried, but my fingers are too used to pine). And as an added bonus, according to debian unstable, it's almost up to version 1.0. It's been at 0.999... for infinity years now. -- Tim Connors
