This is version 1.1 PL0 (patchlevel 0) of the tin newsreader.

-  Based more on Notes and tass than rn type newreaders.

-  Full screen, easy to use with on-line help at all levels.

-  Reads news locally (ie. /usr/spool/news) and via NNTP.

-  Threads on Subject: and/or Archive-name: mail headers.

-  Four different operating levels:
   o  Group selection level
   o  Thread selection level
   o  Article selection level
   o  Article viewer

-  Same interface to mail, pipe, print and save articles.

-  Batch mode to mail/save news when user is on holiday.
