Subject: idea.. check and grab new versions..?
Date: Tue, 21 Jan 1997 12:16:21 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <199701211116.MAA28543@claymore.fukt.hk-r.se> (raw)

Why not step up to the big giants, and follow their good example,
symantec has something called liveupdate, a program that connects to
their site and checks for patches/updates and so on.. 

How a bout a similar feature for gnus :-) I always have to look around
a big bit to fund the correct URL.. 

It is probably no must that it installs the new version, but it would
be nice if it could fetch on demand the latest beta, or release..
