I found the resuscribe shell to be useful, but for resuscribing to
several newsgroups, it could be expensive to keep invoking the editor:

	cat>resuscribe<<!
	# resuscribe to newsgroup[s]...
	for i
	do
	echo "g/$i/s/!/:/p%w%q" | tr % \\012 | ed $HOME/.newsrc
	done
	!

I find it better to do the following.  There are less overall processes:

	cat >resuscribe <<!
	# resuscribe to newsgroup[s]...
	( for i
	do
		echo "g/$i/s/!/:/"
	done; echo "w\nq") | ed - $HOME/.newsrc
