Jerry's wish list
I've been using netnews B for several weeks now and I generaly
like it. But I wish some things would work slightly differently
in the readnews interface.

A. I'd like a command to print an item without going on to the
  next one. This would save me a lot of - operations.

B. I desparately need some way to escape to vi when
  I am doing a followup.  When doing a reply I get into
  Mail which then lets me get into an editor.

C. Assuming B is implemented somehow, I need a way to get at
  the item I am following up.

D. I subscribe to "all" and then ! a lot of groups.  It would be
  handy if I could ! a group from within netnews the first
  time I see it.
