-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

This is the fourth release of knews, a threaded nntp newsreader
for X.  You can find it at:

http://www.matematik.su.se/users/kjj/knews.html
ftp://ftp.matematik.su.se/pub/kjj/knews-0.9.3.tar.gz


Here are some of the features:

+  True threading, with a graphical tree for the threads.
+  Doesn't have to read the active file on startup.
+  Full support for reading MIME articles, except message/partial.
+  Kill file support, with the ability to mark interesting articles
   with color blobs.
+  Regular expression searching in articles and the newsgroup list.
+  Different fonts and colors for quoted text and headers in articles.
+  Configurable key bindings.

What's new in 0.9.3?

+  Background threading of groups in advance.  This should be a
   substantial improvement for people with slow lines and/or servers.
+  XPAT searching.
+  A mechanism for reading the spool dir.
+  Many small enhancements, see the CHANGES file for details.
