NAME

       Pnews - a program for posting news articles

SYNOPSIS

       Pnews newsgroup title
	 or

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.
