In reading mode the selected articles are displayed one at a
time. Each article is marked read after you have read it. You will
enter the next newsgroup after reading the last selected article (or
the current newsgroup if you used the Z command).
The following are some of the commands that are available in
reading mode:
- SPC
- Scroll one page forward. If you are on the final page of an
article, then scroll to the next article.
- BS
- C-h
- Scroll one page backward.
- d
- Scroll one half page forward.
- u
- Scroll one half page backward.
- ^
- Move to the first page of the article.
- $
- Move to the last page of the article.
- /regexp
- Search forward for text matching the pattern regexp. For
example, use /foo to search the for the string `foo' in the
current article.
- D
- Turn rot13 decryption on or off for the current article.
- n
- Move to the next selected article. Current article is marked
as read.
- l
- Leave a selected article and go to the next article. This is
useful if you want to respond to an article, but you would
first like to see if any of the existing responses say what you
are planning to say.
- =
- Return to selection mode. Articles read will be marked read.
- k
- Kill current subject. Skips rest of article and all articles
with the same subject heading. Skipped articles are marked read.
- K
- Similar to k, but kills the subject permanently (more on this
later).
- *
- Selects all articles with same subject as current article. Can
be used to select a base note, read it, and then select the
responses only if you find the base note interesting.
- N
- Skip the rest of the selected and unread articles and go to the
next newsgroup.
- X
- Mark all articles in current group as read and go to the next
newsgroup.
There are three commands for saving articles. These can be invoked
from either reading mode or selection mode:
- S
- Save article including full article header.
- O
- Save article with a short header.
- W
- Save article without a header.
When using one of these three commands, nn
will give you a
default file name. You can kill this and enter your own. You can also
associate a file name with a particular newsgroup via your
`.nn/init' file (this file will be discussed later).
