Subject: Running pine with newsgroup loaded

We are looking for a way to start pine with a newsgroup loaded similar to 
starting it with a folder opened using the -f option.

We would like to start pine from a menu option  (ie pine comp.mail.pine)
and have the newsgroup loaded and the index screen displayed.  Anyone 
have any ideas?

Jim

Try something like

	pine -inbox-path=\*\{news.u/nntp\}comp.mail.pine
