Typing 'h' on your article I read

/pattern/modifiers
        Scan forward for article containing pattern in the subject line.
        (Use ?pat? to scan backwards; append h to scan headers, a to scan
        entire articles, r to scan read articles, c to make case sensitive.
						  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

At the shell, I type "man rn", then "/sensitive" and read

     /pattern/c
             Make search case sensitive.  Ordinarily upper and
             lower case are considered the same.

: I don't have enough time to read all of the messages otherwise.

I'm tempted to make a catty remark at this point.
