   I have been having troubles with xrn.  The first minor problem is
   that the "Fed Up" command seems to jump nonsequentially through
   newsgroups.  This is admittedly a very minor concern.

I believe the author is aware of this problem, and it is on his list
of things to fix.

   But the other is that the window manager has come down three times
   now while I was using xrn, and I wonder whether xrn is the culprit.

If a window manager crashes in response to something that another X
client does, then the window manager is almost definitely at fault.
In other words, I don't think xrn is the problem here.
