|
<P>There is not *the* newsreader for Linux, like there is not *the*
|
|
editor. My favourite newsreader is emacs in gnus mode which is the
|
|
most configurable reader for Linux. Many people are using slrn and
|
|
tin on a terminal, many people use knews under X. There are also trn,
|
|
nn and a lot more reader, so just try what you like. The only reader
|
|
you shouldn't use is Netscape, it is big, feature-less, unstable, and
|
|
it creates sometimes broken postings. However, it is your personal
|
|
decision.
|
|
<P>Anyway, knews is no bad idea for your first experiences as it is very
|
|
user-friendly and easy to understand.
