<P>
This is the News/NNTP client module that handles all communication with
News/NNTP-servers.
<P>
This module is implemented by <A HREF="HTNews.c">HTNews.c</A>, and it is
a part of the <A HREF="http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/Library/">W3C Sample Code
Library</A>.

#include "HTProt.h"
</PRE>
<P>
We define the max NNTP line as rather long as the result coming from a
<CODE>XOVER</CODE> command needs it. If the line is longer then it is chopped,
but we will almost have received the information we're looking for.

  Setting Number of Articles to Show
</H3>
<P>
You can set the number of news articles to be shown at a time. If you set
the number to none (<CODE>0</CODE>) then <EM>all</EM> articles are shown
at once. This is also the default behavior.
