> How do people use nntpfs(1) ?
i did start using it, but found it hideously slow to start up, as it
checks info on all newsgroups at startup (a quick "list newsgroups" on
our nntp server gives a 1.8MB file, listing 41045 groups, which took
about 10 minutes to download - it's on a slower link than our usual
net connection).
there is an acme client that uses nntpfs; again, i didn't get very far
with it for the slowness reason...
cheers,
rog.
