I've released nn-6.7.5.

Changes from nn-6.7.4:
getline shouldn't have been renamed in format.awk
Many ctype functions need to be cast to (unsigned char)

I've been using a news server that has one group with more than
2^31 articles in it. It doesn't cause me any problems now,
because I've unsubbed from it.

I've looked into changing article_number (in articles.h) from
long to unsigned long, but there is (as would be expected)
breakage. Any chance that 32-bit article numbers would be
supported?

They have a newsgroup with more than 2 billion articles?
That sounds, shall we say, a bit absurd.

It would need to be changed in global.h, not articles.h.

< typedef long article_number;

typedef ulong article_number;

Offhand I don't see where changing it from a long to a ulong would break anything, but I don't have time to dig into it at the moment.
