From Newsgroup: news.software.nn


I've released nn-6.7.4. (Yes, it's back from hibernation.)

The main user-visible change is a new variable "nntp_forceauth".
It can be set either in the init file or on the command-line in order
to force nn to authenticate, even when the nntp server doesn't request it

This allows nn to work with places like eternal-september that require
auth for full access, but don't actually ask for it.

Other changes:
Documented nntp-forceauth, nntp-user, and nntp-password
Disabled :debug in FreeBSD as sbrk is no longer supported
Changed getline() to nn_getline() to avoid namespace collisions
added linux to list of systems that need sys/ioctl.h not stropts.h
changed logfle chmod to 644
changed MAILX to /usr/bin/mailx for linux
various code cleanup
fixed many typos/misspelled words
use xmakefile.gcc to work around gmake brain damage
worked around gcc's -fno-common default


It's available at www.nndev.org
