Introduction
News is used to read and maintain news relevant to a local system.
Typically it is run from the .login script so it can automatically
check for any new news items. If it finds any, it will report,
"You have news: item1 item2 etc..."
To read the news, simply type "news". Note, you may wish to type
"news | more" in case the news is too long to fit on a single
screen.
For complete information on the program, see the man page.
Administration
To add news items to your system, simply copy a text file containing
the information to the news directory. (This directory defaults to
/var/news, but can be changed in the Makefile or through the
environment variable, NEWS_PATH)
