NEW FEATURES OF TRN 1.0 vs RN 4.3
New commands (article level)
t display a map of the thread's article tree.
[, ], {, } move around in the article tree
J junk an entire thread of disucussion regardless of
subject changes.
T put the entire thread of discussion in the KILL file
(as opposed to the current subject).
<, > move between threads of discussion
U mark some articles as unread again (choose from
the current thread, subthread, selected threads, or
all articles).
e extract a shar or uuencoded file.
: execute a command on all the selected threads/articles
New commands (newsgroup level)
+ enter a newsgroup through the thread selector.
U enter a newsgroup through the "set unread" prompt.
New commands (thread selector)
[...lots...] use the thread selector to quickly browse the subjects
and/or authors of articles and select only the ones
that you want to read. You can read each one as
soon as you select it, or select them all at once.
Use the 'h' command to see a command summary, or read
the man page for more details.
New header display: we display a subset of the thread's article tree in
each header.
New display ordering: the articles appear in their reply order.
New switches (default may be on, use +x/+X to turn them off)
-x turn on threaded extensions.
-X use thread selector to enter a group.
New magic (use +H to turn them off)
-Hfrom displays only the commented portion of the user name.
-Hdate displays the date in local time.
New environment variables
EXSAVER shell command that starts an extraction.
SELECTCHARS the character set to use to select threads
(default: abcdefgijlorstuvwxz1234567890).
UNSHAR the unshar program to use (default /bin/sh).
REPLYTO the value to use for the "Reply-To:" header, if
needed.
New mode
%m=t when in the thread selector
New % interpolations
%# keeps an incremental count during a multi-file save,
extract, etc. ":s part.%#"
%e the last command executed to extract an article.
%E The number of extra (unselected) articles, not
counting the current article (if selected).
%U same as before (number of unread articles, not counting
the current one) but if selections are on, only counts
selected articles.
%Z The number of selected threads.
Macros and Keymaps
When defining macros, make sure you don't define something that
will conflict with the selection characters in the thread selector.
An easy way is to exclude the thread selector with a mode test:
f %(%m=t?f:|mail smith\n)
Also, if you want to use one of the selection characters as a
command in the thread selector, be sure to exclude it from the
list of selection characters in SELECTCHARS (you can define this
with -ESELECTCHARS=abc123 in your .rninit file).
Miscellaneous
...and much, much more! (including various bug fixes!)
