: Okay, what I'm wondering is, what is "TIN"???

Sorry.  I forgot to mention that.  Tin is a newsreader (like rn,trn, and, 
ug, nn).  It is menu based (i.e. you can use the arrow keys to move up 
and down to select your newsgroup and article.  I presonally think it is 
much superior to all the others.  You can do a lot of cool stuff with 
it.  I am not sure where you can pick up a copy though.  If you want, you 
can e-mail me, and I'll check it out.  Good luck
