# This file contains mappings between notesfiles and newsgroups # when coming from news to notes, the file is scanned until # a match is found in the second field. The first field of # that line is used as the notesfile name. # Similarly, when going from notesfiles to newsgroups, the # first line to match the notesfile name with the first field # goes to the newsgroup listed in the second field. # # notesfile:newsgroup # # For multiple listings: # # net.games.ches:net.games.chess # net.games.ches:net.chess # # net.general:net.general:net.followup # net.general:net.followup # # is the setup for the net.general/net.followup issue. This gets # newsgroups net.general and net.followup into the notesfile # net.general. The third field of the first line sends # responses from the notesfile net.general to the net.followup # newsgroup. The third field does not take part in mapping from # newsgroups to notesfiles; it only works going from notesfiles # to newsgroups. # # -- N.B.: net.followup is no fun within notesfiles; it # -- destroys the concept of linking responses. We map it here, # -- violating net etiquette by posting responses in net.general # -- (this isn't true any more) # net.general:net.general:net.followup net.general:net.followup # # Resolve newsgroups whose "proper" name is longer than # 14 characters. # net.games.pacm:net.games.pacman net.lang.pasca:net.lang.pascal net.lang.prolo:net.lang.prolog net.rec.skydiv:net.rec.skydive net.news.newsi:net.news.newsite net.sport.base:net.sport.baseball net.sport.hock:net.sport.hockey # # Resolve commonly mis-posted newsgroups.
