NAME
newsetup - a program to set up a .newsrc file
SYNOPSIS
newsetup
DESCRIPTION
The
newsetup
program creates a new .newsrc file containing all of the currently active
newsgroups.
It tries to put them in a reasonable order, i.e. local newsgroups earlier,
but you'll probably want to change the ordering anyway (if you use
rn)
in order to put interesting newsgroups first.
If you already have a .newsrc, it will be backed up with the name
``.oldnewsrc''.
ENVIRONMENT
- DOTDIR
-
Where to put your .newsrc, if not in your home directory.
Default: $HOME
- HOME
-
Your home directory.
Default: $LOGDIR
- LOGDIR
-
Your home directory if HOME is undefined.
FILES
/usr/lib/news/active or a reasonable facsimile
${DOTDIR-{$HOME-$LOGDIR}}/.newsrc
SEE ALSO
rn(1), newsrc(5)
