  i've got the quickest:  just type 's' to save an article.  
  
  you have to invoke rn with "-d~/usr/spool/mail/news -/" in order for the
  article to be deposited as a mh file in a mh folder (in this case "news"). 
  also note that my mh directory is usr/spool/mail.  the above two arguments
  can placed in an RNINIT environment variable or file in order to avoid
  typing them every time.
