Re: Newbie Question

Hi list,
 
After reading my post again, I was confused myself. So I will try again to
explain.
 
I AM using slrnpull. I was just wodering if you could do some stuff without
using slrnpull.
 
1)At the moment I am tagging messages with '#', and then I save it with 'o'. My
problem however is to let slrn(pull) know that I have previously tagged a message for
saving. I am constantly saving duplicate messages.
 
2)How can I update the group list using slrn(pull). I know that you can do it if
you are not using a spool file and with the 'L' command. At the moment if I try
to update the group listing, slrn(pull) only shows the groups in my spool file.
 
3)I fire up slrn (after issuing slrnpull command) like this: 'slrn --create'.
Doing it like this takes me to my spool directory with no hassles and I can see
all the subscribed groups that slrnpull so elegantly fetched for me. But, if I
issue 'slrn --pool', I still go to the spool directory, but no groups are
displayed.
 
Thank You
