News client in Python?

[David LeBlanc]

Sheila;

Thanks for pointing me at XNews.

I did take a look at Xnews, but was disappointed in that it was an online 
reader only, so I looked further. During that search, I was reminded that 
Mahogony is a newsreader written in Python. I had previously evaluated 
the most recent build of it and found it too unstable for me.

Anyway, after a long search and trying out serveral newsreaders, I found 
Gravity 2.5. Seems this is a recently turned freeware commercial package. 
WOW! It's very complete and seems well written.
