When I posted my original query about adding .signature file handling
to Larry Wall's Pnews script, I was running on only one engine.

I have learned that .signature file handling is not the responsibility
of the posting script or program, but of inews itself. For some
reason, our inews here must not be properly tuned or is not
being passed the proper switches, or soemthing like that.

In any event, Larry was right, apparently, in not including it
in his Pnews script. And soon, I may even get around to figuring
out why our own inews doesn't handle our .signature files.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.
