Is there an accessible program available to download usenet
messages? Everything travels in messages. Earlier the two big
formats were uuencode and mime. Later yenc was added. For
downloading and building binary files, you need at first an
accessible message reader; after that conversion tools, and finally
something like brik to verify file integrity before you try anything
with the files. I've read gnus can do this on the mac http:/'/www.gnus.org/
and gnus may even be able to do some or all of its own decoding and
integrity checking by now. For gnus, you need emacs as a
prerequisite and since emacs talks there shouldn't be any problem
with gnus either. That's one mail and news reader I've not yet
managed to configure successfully. Interestingly, it's the mail
side of the configuration that is likely going to be a bear but the
news side isn't too complicated. hth.
