i downloaded ubh, created my .newsrc and .ubhrc files, and get a huge list
of errors when I run the program.
how can I verify I have all the packages it says you need at the beginning
of the readme?
I did a server install of text apps when I did my initial install. I'm very
new to this stuff.

A program called Usenet Binary Harvester at http://ubh.sf.net will
download binaries, though not as you've described. It downloads
everything it can from one or more groups that you specify.
I've gotten slrn to work quite well, displaying only what I find to be
useful information and maximizing the article window so the headers
display isn't annoying. I can make the files available if anyone is
interested.
