Message-ID: <8908061039.AA12213@kulesat.uucp> Date: 6 Aug 89 10:39:54 GMT Sender: ANU-NEWS Discussion Reply-To: Marc Elsen Lines: 37 Comments: Warning -- original Sender: tag was I would like to know if the following NEWS command can be used WITHOUT the /inquire flag : NEWS> create newsgroup */server=SERVERNAME/protocol=decnet/inquire When one removes the /inquire flag from the above command news returns with : 'Newsgroup : * (NEWS.SYS Filter rejects news groupname)' ! ??? I would like to add this command in all 'CLIENT' newsskim procedures so that they would automatically match their list of newsgroups to that resident on the server. /inquire however demands interactive response which of course isn't available in batch. p.s: Another suggestion for improvement : It would be nice if Ctrl-W (screen refresh) also redefined the previously loaded keypad definitions. Very handy if one is switching between terminal server sessions for example. Marc Elsen (System Manager/Software Engineer) Katholieke Universiteit Leuven Dep. E.S.A.T. Kard.
