With dynafeed you give the sites a .newsrc file, just like a reader on your system, and the feeding program reads the .newsrc and feeds them the "unread" news. They can change the .newsrc without your intervention, and in fact can have it updated on a daily basis form their arbitron reports. It is on uunet, in the ~ftp/clarinet directory. It's free in most cases. -- Brad Templeton, ClariNet Communications Corp. -- Waterloo, Ontario 519/884-7473
