I have found digests to be no problem to deal with.  I am using vn.
Vn is a full-screen news reader that prints a screen full of subject
lines that you can select from.  It has a feature to turn digests into
their own 'news group', so you select just the same as before.

Vn came over the net about 2.5 months ago. (As a source code listing.)
