   A *ton* of info?  Come on now. ;)   
      
   All I was missing was:   
      
   "The next step is to retrieve a newsgroup list from the news server and   
   should be performed in the following manner: Either press , cursor   
   along to "Message" and press  or just press "M". Now select "News/   
   Echo Manager..","   
      
   I totally forgot about the guide.  Thank you again for creating it!   
      
   Now.. there are a few things in it that may need updating.  ;)

   For example, the above quote should actually read:   
      
   "The next step is to retrieve a newsgroup list from the news server and   
   should be performed in the following manner: Either press  + ,   
   cursor   
   along to "Message", or just press "M". Now select "Area Manager..","

     ÀÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ   
      
   (At least that is how it behaves and looks in the Windows version)   
      
      
   I would also suggest page numbers for the guide, that we can narrow down     
   the place to look by saying "See 7.1, page 2, para 3"   
      
   [2]   
      
   In Subscribe, the S)earch does not behave the way you describe:   
      
   "but if you know the name of the newsgroup or part of the name, you can   
   perform a search by pressing "S". After typing in the search phrase and   
   pressing , a list of matches will be displayed and you should   
   cursor over the newsgroup you wish to subscribe to and press ."   
      
   I do not get "a list of matches".  I only get the first match.  Then if I     
   want to continue with the search, I have to press "S " again.
