When I used to regularly read discuss meetings, I sometimes used xdsc for
certain things. These days, I no longer regularly read discuss meetings
(or at least, not more than one entry at a time as I see -c discuss
zephyr), and so no longer use xdsc (and use diswww most of the time, and
the command line client for things like deleting spam). (I used to also
use emacs-discuss for other things, but also generally no longer use it.)
