Subject: active newsgroup list under pine

Is there a way to have pine read an active news file when using an nntp
connection.  The problem is that whenever I want to subscribe to a new
group, pine has to fetch the list from the server.  This is very time
consuming.  I want to be able to have pine read a file in my home
directory or something instead of going to the server all the time.  I'm
running linux on a 28.8 ppp conection.

I strongly support this wish. Most other Mail/News UAs support such a
feature.
