BNR2 (Binary News Reaper) v0.14.7 Beta


Overview :

BNR is a news reader software specifically tailored for binary articles
(articles from alt.binaries.* newsgroups, for example). The acronym BNR
stands for "Binary News Reader" (when talking about BNR1), or for "Binary
News Reaper" (when talking about BNR2. Confused? Didn't think so. :) BNR
downloads and decodes binary articles and saves them on your hard drive
to the directory of your choice. BNR can also download text articles, but
other news readers are probably better suited to this task. BNR will run
on PC hardware running either Windows or Linux operating systems. BNR is
freeware but copyrighted, which means you are allowed to freely download
and distribute it, as long as you don't pretend it was you who created
it. :). Screenshot of BNR in action (59kb, in a new window) There is no
warranty, BNR is provided "as is", so take appropriate precautions if you
run BNR on a machine containing vital data. I shall not be held
responsible whatever happens when you use BNR, etc... Okay, that's enough
of the disclaimers.

What's New:

# Fixed rare problem of some articles causing Access Violation and
failing when trying to perform any commands on them when the hierarchy
view is disabled.
# [Linux] Parsing of command-line parameters now treats forward slashes
at start of a path correctly instead of treating as start of a parameter.

I hope that the bugs have been corrected, but the last time I used BNR2
it was so riddled with them that it was totally unuseable.
