[svn] * src/protocol.c: Fix bug in Prt_getLn if we should read a line starting with '\0' - according to the leafnode mailing list, this has been seen in the wild. * docs/inews.1,docs/noffle.1,docs/noffle.conf.5, packages/redhat/noffle.spec,src/configfile.h,src/configfile.c, src/noffle.c,src/post.h,src/post.c: Removed use of getopt_long, and added inews mode - the Noffle executable behaves as inews is invoked as inews. This includes adding From: and Organization: headers if necessary - add configs to override defaults for the From: domain and specify the organization. For all my fellow trn-heads out there, and users of any other ageing newsreader that expects inews. Updated RPM spec to create inews link to noffle on install.
