German,Dutch Tour Groups Boycott Canada!! Good!

I see you as a resident of North America using a language from England, and
not one from North America, WHY?, are you a recent English immigrant?

Top Poster made a typo.

How do you know it was a typo, and not lack of knowledge of the correct
usage of the word?

Top Poster has been hanging around edm.general for a long
time. After a while, you kind of sort of get a sense of how
he thinks.

You still have problems setting up a killfile, do it this way



Screening Articles Automatically (Killfiles)
Trn's threading mechanism helps you to skip discussions that you are not
interested in, by grouping together articles with the same subject into one
entry in the thread selection menu. In most cases, you can efficiently scan
the thread selection menu for the discussions you want to read, select them,
read them, and then junk everything else with the X or c commands.
However, sometimes a discussion becomes very heated, and splinters into
several related threads. Sometimes there may simply be several ongoing
discussions about some topic in which you are not interested. In extreme
cases it can be a nuisance even to search through the thread selection menu
for topics that you want to read. In these situations, and some others, you
can use trn's killfile mechanism to junk articles on certain topics
automatically, so that they do not even appear in the thread selection menu.

For any newsgroup you read, you can create a killfile, which contains a list
of patterns and commands. For example, the entry

/boring/j
tells trn to junk any article whose Subject: line contains the sequence of
characters boring. It doesn't matter how the pattern is capitalized; trn
treats upper and lower case as the same here. The command j must be in lower
case, though.
You can tell trn to search the entire header of the article for a matching
pattern:


/boring/h:j
You can even tell trn to search the entire article:

/boring/a:j


To create or edit a killfile for a particular newsgroup, hold down the
control or ctrl key while pressing k (usually referred to as control-K or
^K), when you are at either thread-selection level or article-reading level.
This creates the killfile if it doesn't exist already, then takes you into
the vi editor. You can now enter new kill patterns or delete ones which you
no longer need. A new killfile might look like this, after you've inserted
the patterns:


/ahmadi/j
/ahamadi/j
/lemur/j
~
~
(etc.)
~
~
"/home/jtbell/News/news/groups/KILL" [New file]
Type ZZ to save the killfile and return to trn.
The killfile takes effect the next time you enter the newsgroup. Instead of
seeing the thread selection menu immediately, you see a report on the
effects of the killfile:


Processing memorized commands...

/ahmadi/j
3726 Junked
3729 Junked
3730 Junked
3735 Junked
/ahamadi/j
3734 Junked
/lemur/j

Killed 5 articles.

[Type space to continue]
The numbers are the local article numbers for the articles which were
junked. Typing a space takes you to the thread selection menu, where you can
select and read articles as usual.
After you've been reading a newsgroup for a while, you may find that you
want to ignore articles from certain people. Since a person's e-mail address
normally appears in the From: line in the article header, you can usually
accomplish this by placing the address in your killfile, together with the h
modifier. For example, here is my current killfile for sci.physics:


/TIME HAS INERTIA/j
/h:j
The third line junks anything from . Notice the backslash
before the period. Since a period in a pattern to be matched has a special
meaning, I have to precede it with a backslash to tell trn that I really do
want a period.
In general, the characters ., *, [, / and \ are "special" in a pattern and
must be preceded by a \ in order to be interpreted literally. (Notice,
however, that the /'s in the examples above are not part of the pattern
itself, but merely serve to delimit it, and so are not preceded with a \.)
The same applies to a ^ at the beginning of a pattern, and to a $ at the end
of a pattern. These characters are part of UNIX's regular expression
language, which allows you to do very sophisticated pattern matching which
is far beyond the scope of this note.
