	Slrn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		slrn is an open source text-based news client.
		slrn runs through a textual user interface and is highly customizable.
		The slrn name derives from the use of S-Lang and the basis on another newsreader rn.

	Alcor on-Line Help: Introduction to Usenet News and the slrn Newsreader
		When you run slrn for the first time, it has no idea of which newsgroups you are interested in, so it presents you either with only a few newsgroups which your news administrator has deemed of interest to new users, or in some cases, with all the newsgroups which your system receives.
		Slrn prepares the reply and allows you to edit it, just as if you were posting a followup article, but e-mails it to the author instead of posting it to Usenet.
		Slrn allows you to post an article to a moderated group in exactly the same way as to an unmoderated group, except that the news server mails your article to the moderator instead of placing it directly in the newsgroup.

	The slrn newsreader / Home
		The original author of slrn is John E. Davis; since version 0.9.7.0, the program is maintained by Thomas Schultz, with the help of a great number of people who make contributions.
		I decided to make one more release before the upcoming transition to slang-2, so here it is. Compared to 0.9.8.0, it mainly offers a bunch of bug fixes, but also gives a (minor, but convenient) bit of new functionality (see list of changes).
		Thomas Schultz is the new maintainer of slrn; he also does the layout of the website and provides content.

	Slrn news client tutorial
		Slrn is a news reader for the UNIX environment.
		To post a new message of your own, type 'P' (a capital 'P'.) slrn will prompt you for the newsgroup you want to post to (just hit the return key for now), the subject of the post (put whatever you like, but make sure that it isn't blank.
		slrn doesn't allow a blank subject line.) slrn will then bring you to an editor where you can edit your message.

	Automated News Fetching
		Slrn uses a configure script which should enable it to be compiled on most Linux systems.
		The sample.slrnrc file included with the program has an if/then statement which causes Slrn to read the local active file when run in spool mode, while keeping Slrn in standard mode from retrieving the bulky remote active file each time a connection is made.
		Slrnpull is also effective for obtaining a quick idea of the the flavor and tone of a group: just tell it to suck down the most recent twenty messages in the group, and see what you think.

		slrn is highly customizable and includes a sophisticated macro language for further customization.
		The editor slrn will use for composing articles can be configured by either setting the EDITOR environment variable or by configuring the editor_command variable in the slrn.rc file.
		If you want slrn to use a different editor from the one you have already set the EDITOR variable to, or if you want slrn's editor to automatically position the cursor in the article body, you will need to add a line to your global slrn.rc.

	Linux: slrn (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		To use slrn, you either need to set the NNTPSERVER environment variable to the server you want to read news from or specify a server on the command line.
		In these cases, it should be set to the current directory at the time slrn is invoked.
		Recent versions of the slrn manual and the FAQ as well as additional information can also be found on slrn's official home page: http://slrn.sourceforge.net/ Questions about slrn that are not covered by existing documentation may be posted to the newsgroup news.software.readers where they will be answered by knowledgeable users or the author of the program.

	ITSS: SLRN 0.9.7.4
		SLRN is a powerful, easy to use, threaded internet newsreader for Unix, VMS, OS/2, and Win32 systems.
		In addition, SLRN provides full support for score files allowing one to design complex filters to sort or kill articles based on how well an article scores.
		SLRN uses S-lang as an extension language and therefore can be extensively customized with S-lang scripts.

	Kodak SLRn Experience
		On the 1Ds we used the Canon 100mm Macro and on the SLR/n the Nikon 105 Micro.
		The SLR/n is the new DSLR resolution king.

	[No title] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Background: When slrn runs it looks for a file that contains the description of all the news groups.
		It is not desirable for each user to have their own private copy of this file, especially when more than one user uses slrn on a given system.
		The other method is just as easy but involves slrn to create such a file for you.

	The slrn FAQ: General questions about slrn (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Slrn (``slang read news'') is a Usenet newsreader that runs in text mode on various Unix and Unix-like operating systems (including Linux), Windows, OS/2, BeOS, MacOS X and VMS.
		If you run Linux, your distribution probably contains a slrn package that might not offer the latest version, but is more or less ``ready to go''.
		Additional resources are available at slrn's official homepage.

	Netnews with SLRN
		SLRN is a single-purpose program which has a number of advanced news-handling features such as the ability to thread news articles (arrange responses adjacent to original postings), and score files (ability to rate articles based on keywords).
		A description of the commands and command line options for slrn is available in the on-line UNIX manual pages.
		Slrn supports a feature called scorefiles which allows you to automatically filter newsgroups while reading them.

	SLRN Frequently Asked Questions
		The most important sources of information about slrn's features are currently the man page and the new manual (`doc/manual.txt' in the source tarball).
		In this case, unless the server has been configured to provide the Xref header as part of the NOV database, slrn will not be able to get the header without accessing the article.
		To force the mouse to be used, startup slrn using the -m option, e.g., `slrn -m'.

	Internet: News - NNTP
		SLRN can be readily extended using SLANG scripts, and its own C-based source code is "clean" enough that many customizations can be readily added at that level too.
		The news spool would of course need to be modified so as to have slrn access the ifiltered folders as a news spool.
		There needs to be a quick and dirty interface that allows the user to tag a bunch of articles and refile them to another newsgroup (thus updating the dictionary of statistics).

		That is why it is rather convenient to write the post on one console/xterm having slrn handy on another.
		Can also be used in hooks to assign a colour scheme to a certain group, etc. The macro is capable of remembering what colour scheme you chose the last time and automatically loading it the next time you run slrn.
		HOW: The macros still can be used with the "vanilla" slrn; the only requirement is that the system macro "slrn-pl.sl" must be interpreted before.

	Immunix: 'slrn' buffer overflow - The Community's Center for Security
		This buffer is created on the heap, so it is not protected from overflows by the StackGuard compiler (more information detailing the overflows that StackGuard does protect against can be found at http://immunix.org/stackguard.html) This overflow can occur by creating a very long header in a news message.
		Some messages that can cause the slrn news reader to crash have been detected in the wild, but no exploits are currently known at this time.
		Immunix 7.0 does not install the slrn packages by default but provides them in the extras/unsupported directory so they do not need to be upgraded unless they have been installed manually by the system administrator.

	ISS X-Force Database: slrn-wrapping-bo(6213): slrn newsreader wrapping/unwrapping buffer overflow

		The wrapping function is not enabled by default, but it can be enabled by modifying the configuration or pressing W while viewing a message.
		CVE-2001-0441: Buffer overflow in (1) wrapping and (2) unwrapping functions of slrn news reader before 0.9.7.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long message header.

	The slrn reference manual: Configuration variables
		Note: If you set this variable to less than 5, slrn will ignore it and use the default of 50 instead (or 20, when reading short articles that contain less than 200 lines).
		If non-zero, slrn checks whether the articles referenced by the news overview files actually exist.
		This may add a perceptible delay and is redundant with servers that keep their overview files up to date.
