Thanks very much for your complete and full answer.

Work on Knewspost appears to have stopped years ago, and Gnewspost 
doesn't appear up-to-date either, so I'm using the command line with 
newspost to do binary posting.

I appreciate all the work you guys are doing on Pan.  I understand that 
you do it only in your spare time, but nevertheless you have 
contributed a very professional program already.  I guess what is 
needed is for a hook on the GUI to access newspost and as I am not even 
in the realms of an incompetent coder, I don't think I'll be 
contributing that.  However, I shall help anybody who wants my 
assistance in any way I can.

I'll look forward to seeing the CVS version of Pan in due course....

Thanks again!
