linux binary newsreader?


Hey guys
I use Grabit and Smartpar for win for downloading binaries from usenet. Do you know similar programs for linux?

This is really the only thing keeping me from totally switching to linux for my os

thanks

Pan is a VERY good replacement for NewsbinPro (the newsreader I used in windows..)
