Xnews

Usenet newsreader for Windows 9x/NT/2000/XP. It's written in Delphi. by the way.

• New users are often confused or annoyed by Xnews opening an article or thread when they click on the subject. The solution is simple: don't click on the subject! Instead, click in any of the other columns, like From or Date or Lines.
• To decode yEnc files, make sure you're using the latest Xnews version. yEnc files should decode transparently (you don't need to do anything special).
• To install/update Xnews, just unzip all files into a directory of your choice. It's safe to overwrite everything. All your data/settings will remain intact.
• Look at Special | Keyboard mapping. You may find commands you did not know of!
• Use the queue, Luke! To decode several binaries, you have to first queue them by pressing space or click on the Q column. Then, hit F4 (decode).

What is new in this release:

• Possibly fixed the errant got reply sound problem.
• If you have a free floating (non-MDI) editor window, it doesn't warn when you shut down Xnews without saving.
• X-Face is now integrated into the exe. No need for compface.dll. Thank you, Matthijs.
• Took out the yEnc info banner. I think everyone knows what it is by now
  • Also, added total= to yEnc header, in compliance with yEnc 1.3.
