DESCRIPTION
Pnews is a friendly interface for posting news articles. It will ask several questions, then allow you to enter your article, and then
post it using the inews(1) program. If you type h and a carriage return at any point, Pnews will tell you what it wants to know.
The -h form is used when invoked from rn. If your editor can edit multiple files, and you want the article to which you are replying to
show up as an alternate file, define the environment variable NEWSPOSTER as "Pnews -h %h %A". You can also modify the the NEWSHEADER envi-
ronment variable to change the header file that rn passes to Pnews.
ENVIRONMENT
AUTHORCOPY
If defined, contains the name of a file to which the finished article will be appended.
Default: article not saved
DOTDIR Where to find your dot files, if they aren't in your home directory. This is primarily for accounts which are shared by more than
one person.
Default: $HOME
EDITOR The editor you want to use, if VISUAL is undefined.
Default: whatever your news administrator installed, usually vi.
HOME Your home directory.
Default: $LOGDIR
LOGDIR Your home directory if HOME is undefined.
LOGNAME Your login name, if USER is undefined.
Default: value of "whoami".
