And now, TheNews ...

TheNews is a Usenet news reader for the Macintosh. With it, you
can read news articles from among the thousands of news groups
available, post new and followup articles, and mail followup
messages to the article posters. The program requires a link to
your news server via MacTCP (Ethernet or LocalTalk), UUCP (using
UUPC 3.x and ToadNews), or the CommToolBox (over your modem).

This is a minor enhancement release:

Enhancements
* Highlighting of quoted text can be changed from default italics to normal,
bold, etc. See manual for details.
* Program used to allocate a large chunk of memory before reading an
article, and then scale back. If the article was larger than what was
allocated, excess lines would be thrown away. Program now allocates
memory as needed.
* Modifications/additions to character translation tables.

If you like the program, please send $25 to:

(Of course, as always, if you have already registered an earlier
version, this new version is free.) If you *really* like the
program and are interested in getting a site license, have a
look at the README document -- you'll like the discount prices,
I'm sure.

Enjoy,
