NAME
newsgroups - a program to list unsubscribed newsgroups.
SYNOPSIS
newsgroups pattern flag
DESCRIPTION
The
newsgroups
program compares your .newsrc file with the file of active newsgroups,
and prints a list of unsubscribed newsgroups matching pattern.
If the second argument ``flag'' is present, only newsgroups not
found in your .newsrc are listed, and the display is not paged.
If the second argument is missing, the display is paged, and an additional
list of unsubscribed newsgroups occurring in your .newsrc is printed.
