No, credit where credit is due, it was actually Roy's
idea. Unsurprisingly. Even though he "has experience programming GUIs"
and could do it himself no doubt. I could eat him for breakfast if he
tries a pissing competition about GUI programming : but lets not stop
our Roy posturing for the gang.
Let me find his call to arms for Rex and co to come and create his new
"free" search engine (which begs the question, which one does he pay
for?).

Ah yes, here it is. Which reminds me, I'm a pretentious prat.

2 out of 10. And the 2 are for the bollox to write such pretentious
claptrap. Would anyone care to break it down so it makes sense? Hey,
maybe we could try the engine itself!!!! Hold on ....

Nope. It didn't work. I guess its still in beta ....

You can see that there are 25 unread articles in `news.announce.newusers'.
There are no unread articles, but some ticked articles, in
`alt.fan.andrea-dworkin' (see that little asterisk at the beginning of the
line?)
You can fuck that up to your heart's delight by fiddling with the
`gnus-group-line-format' variable.
