For other Usenet Article Is to use Outlook Express for newsgroups. In fact, many email clients, such as Thunderbird and Windows Live Mail, can use the above newsgroups. However, these clients are not professional newsgroup clients, so it is necessary to introduce some clients specially designed for newsgroups.
(1) xpn
It is written in Python + GTK, So in principle, it can be run on many platforms.
(2) Pan
It can run on UNIX and Unix-like, Mac OS X, and Windows systems.
(3) gravity
The newsgroup reading tool on Windows platform, written in VC and MFC.
(4) mesnews
Written in Delphi, applicable to all Windows platforms (95, 98, NT, on 2000, XP and Vista ).
(5) News Xpress
It is not recommended that you stop development.
(6) xnews
It is also written in Delphi and is suitable for running in windows. However, it seems that development has also stopped and is not recommended.
(7) Google groups
I thought Google groups was just a place that Google provided to everyone to open forums. Now I know that Google groups can also be used to read newsgroups! Of course, this is only a function of Google groups. You can use Google groups to access the mailing list or other forums you can find.
PS: gnus of Emacs
This is a bit difficult. First you have to use Emacs and then configure gnus. The learning curve is relatively high and is not recommended.
Among these tools, I prefer xpn. The shortcut keys here are also similar to those of other software. The most common operations are as follows:
1) shortcut keys for moving in groups
In the main window, click the corresponding group to display the title of the article. Then click the title to display the content of the article.
Press g to enter the next group, and press n to open the next unread article. Press the Space key to automatically flip the page (if it is not the end of the article, it will automatically display the next unread article ).
2) shortcut keys for document operations
Press P to create a new post. Press F to reply a post to the group, and press Ctrl + m to send the email to the author of the article.
If you encounter any problems when using xpn, restart it. Program . PS: xpn these shortcuts and the use of the term on the wood Community Really ah ~~
