This is a small collection of Usenet-related programs.
These programs run on Linux and are written in C and C++. They requires Lynx, Curl, Expat and Libgcrypt. bzr2news requires Bazaar to be installed.
spoolstats requires cairomm, currently the configure script will fail without this but in future it might be possible to build just the non-graphical tools.

You can get the latest development versions from git. The configure script is not included in compiled form so you must run the 'autogen.sh' script.
$ git clone git://github.com/ewxrjk/nntp-tools.git $ ./autogen.sh [lots of output] $ ./configure -C [lots of output] $ make [lots of output]
Releases are made from the release branch.
