... 7.2 Saving an Individual Article


To save a single message, type `s' while reading it.  nn will suggest
the default save folder for the newsgroup you're in.  A plus sign (+)
at the beginning means your news folder directory (~/News or whatever
you set with the folder variable).  At the folder prompt you can:

 Type      In Order To...
 ======    ==============
 RET       Save in the suggested folder
 <text>    Edit the suggested folder name
 ^U        Delete suggested folder and be prompted with last-used 
           save folder
 ^U ^U     Delete suggested folders so you can type a folder name


NOTE: ^U is not an nn command; it is the usual Unix command to "kill"
a line.  To find out your Unix "kill" command type `stty -a' at your
Unix prompt.

After you save the article, the status bar at the bottom of the
message will say `(Filed)' so you'll know that it's been saved.
