I'm a vn user, and generally quite happy with it.  I just wish it
did cross-referencing, so i wouldn't see articles I've already read.

Since cross-posted articles are just links to the same file, wouldn't 
just keeping a list of inodes found handle this?  Have you already
done this?

This seems so trivial there may be something wrong with it.  I'd
like to hear from anyone who can see a flaw in this technique, or
who's already hacked vn to do it.  If there's no reply from either
camp within a week, I'll try it out and post the results.

Thanks in advance.
