<p>Were working on it. Youll need a news server to read news, and its up; its <code>news.tilde.club</code>.</p>
<p>[[slrn]] is a newsreader; see http://slrn.sourceforge.net/ for details.</p>
<p>[[pine]] can read news; this <a href="tutorial">http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/Help/News/PineNews.html</a> might help. You can also read the <a href="http://www.washington.edu/pine/faq/news.html">FAQ from U Washington</a>.</p>
<p>In Pine do S for setup, C for config, then set NNTP Server (for news) to news.tilde.club Then go back to the main menu, and pick Folder List, A for add, ^t for list</p>
<p><code>M-x gnus</code> in [[emacs]] can read news, but you better know [[emacs]] first before you start.</p>
<p>[[lynx]] reads news, a la <code>lynx news://news.tilde.club/tilde.general</code>. It can even post news, but you have to design your own headers.</p>
