a little less tolerant of my news server's flaky connection so I'd
often set it to just download headers from a bunch of groups and leave
and come back to find that it was stalled with some error.

it's very powerful and flexible and I may give it a re-visit. It's the
only one I'd considered as an alternative to BNR and it does text

"lite text newsgroup reader"!
