Summary: 


I posted a request a few weeks ago about how to extract an article
from a digest using "rn", and got the same kind of response as Guy
Harris offered to the query about vnews -- there is a way to SEE
individual items, but apparently no way to SAVE them.  I, too, go
to "readnews" and use the "d" command to deal with digests. Since
fa.info-mac has gone over to digest form, this deficiency in "rn"
(and presumably "vnews") is doubly annoying.
