   Put newsgroup where?     level.  I did not want to be there.  Typing h did
   not give me any way to not put the group anywhere
   I typed Ctrl-C.  Nothing happened.
   I typed Ctrl-C again:

   Put newsgroup where? [$^L]
   Bye-bye.

   Caught an internal error--.newsrc restored

   My .newsrc was *not* restored.  It was gone.

Fixed.  It was Calvin's fault.  I'm almost done installing fixed
binaries, and I'll release the sipb locker when that's done.

   At the Put newsgroup where?  it should accept 'u' to unsubscribe, instead of
   makeing one subsribe then unsubscribe.

No, it shouldn't, since right before you get the "Put newsgroup
where?" prompt, it asks you if you want to subscribe.  No program is
completely idiot-proof.  It can't keep making it easy for you to back
out of your mistakes forever.
