Using xrn

Xrn has a graphical windows interface and only runs on the RCS workstations. Xrn uses a window that is divided into a top half and a bottom half. The top half usually contains the list of articles in a group and buttons to indicate what you can do with the articles. The bottom half usually contains the article that you are reading and more buttons allowing you to react to the article. (There are exceptions to both these cases.) See memo RPI.112, Using UNIX Workstations, for further details about using the RCS workstations.
