PROGRAM:

NAME


slrnpull - Pull a small newsfeed for offline reading.

SYNOPSIS


slrnpull [-d spooldir] [-h server] [--debug file] [--expire] [--fetch-score n] [--help]
[--kill-log file] [--kill-score n] [--logfile file] [--marked-bodies] [--new-groups]
[--no-post] [--post] [--post-only] [--rebuild] [--version]

DESCRIPTION


slrnpull pulls a small newsfeed from an NNTP server. It puts the articles into a spool
directory from which slrn can later read them, even if the server is unreachable at that
time. Typically, this is useful if you do not have a permanent network connection.

OPTIONS


The following options can be used when calling slrnpull from the command line.

-d spooldir
Set slrnpull's root directory for this run to spooldir, overriding the
$SLRNPULL_ROOT environment variable.

-h host[:port]
Connect to the NNTP server on host, overriding the $NNTPSERVER environment
variable. If no port is given, the default NNTP port (119) will be used.

--debug file
Write dialogue with the server and some additional debugging output to file.

--expire
Expire (remove) old messages from the spool, but do not fetch news.

--fetch-score n
Fetch article bodies with a score of at least n automatically (in true offline
mode, the default is to fetch only bodies that were explicitly marked by the user).

--help Show help for command line switches.

--kill-log file
Keep a log of all articles that were killed by the scorefile in file. By default,
no such logfile is created.

--kill-score n
Kill all articles with a score below n. The default value for this is 0.

--logfile file
Log the messages and errors that slrnpull prints to the screen to file. By
default, they get written to the file log in slrnpull's root directory.

--marked-bodies
Only fetch bodies that were marked for download within slrn.

--new-groups
Check for new groups, appending them to the file new.groups in the data directory.

--no-post
Do not post any articles to the server.

--post Obsolete version of --post-only.

--post-only
Post outgoing articles, but do not fetch news.

--rebuild
Like --expire, but also rebuild the overview information. To be used when the
overview information is damaged.

--version
Print the version number.

ENVIRONMENT


slrnpull reads the following environment variables. Note that they can be overridden by
command line switches.

NNTPSERVER
You can use this variable to tell slrnpull which NNTP server to connect to. It can
be overridden by the command line option -h.

SLRNPULL_ROOT
Defines the directory where slrnpull will look for its configuration files and
spool the articles. An absolute filename is needed here. This can be overriden by
the option -d.
