Normally I'd go with unison for newsgroups but I heard people complain about it when its used for binaries.whats your favorite binary newsreader? Best newsreader for binary newsgroups? Discussion in 'Mac Apps and Mac App Store' started by brianj, Oct 28, 2007. I'm a complete Mac newbie so perhaps I'm doing something wrong. This article does not cite any sources. Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources.Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (December 2009) (Learn how and when to remove this template message). Newsbeuter is an open-source RSS/Atom feed reader for text terminals. It runs on Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X and other Unix-like operating systems.
There are various mailing lists and Usenetnewsgroups for Linux discussion:
comp.os.linux.announce
is a moderated newsgroup forannouncements about Linux (e.g., new programs, bug fixes). comp.os.linux.answers
contains all the FAQ files, HOWTOfiles, and other important documentation. comp.os.linux.admin
is an unmoderated newsgroup fordiscussion of administration of Linux systems. comp.os.linux.development
is an unmoderated newsgroupspecifically for discussion of Linux kerneldevelopment. The only application development questions that should bediscussed here are those that are intimately associated with thekernel. All other development questions are probably genericUnix development questions and should be directed to acomp.unix
group instead. comp.os.linux.help
is an unmoderated newsgroup for anyLinux questions that don't belong anywhere else. comp.os.linux.misc
is the replacement forcomp.os.linux
, and is meant for any discussion thatdoesn't belong elsewhere.
Additional topical Linux newsgroups include:
comp.os.linux.advocacy
comp.os.linux.alpha
comp.os.linux.development.apps
comp.os.linux.development.system
comp.os.linux.hardware
comp.os.linux.m68k
comp.os.linux.networking
comp.os.linux.portable
comp.os.linux.powerpc
comp.os.linux.security
comp.os.linux.setup
comp.os.linux.x
In general, you should not cross-post between the Linuxnewsgroups. The only cross-posting that is appropriate is anoccasional posting between one unmoderated group andcomp.os.linux.announce
. The whole point of splittingcomp.os.linux
into many groups is to reduce traffic ineach.
The Linux FAQ is periodically posted to many of the Linuxnewsgroups, mailing lists, and FTP sites. You can browseand search the FAQ Archives at the Linux FAW website.
Some of the above information came from the LinuxInformation Sheet.
At Indiana University, for personal or departmental Linux or Unix systems support, see Get help for Linux or Unix at IU.
