   Long ago I considered messing around w/ slrn, back when Andrew had slrn   
   pages on his 'little corner of the web' which has since been brought   
   into Ub Help.   
      
   My favorite text-interface news (&mail) agent is Alpine because of the   
   way it has integrated its help and configuration into its interface.  I   
   always felt that strategy would be a good one for slrn and some other   
   text-based tools.   
      
   I can't think of any text editors including those in mail/news agents   
   which can easily reformat w/o 'building' some kind of regex or algo or   
   macro to do it.  Tb's isn't 'perfect' but it is pretty good.
