XPN 0.6.5 released

[Nemesis]

Mentre io pensavo ad una intro simpatica "Franz Steinhaeusler"
scriveva:

Good :-)

It is not necessary, if you are using the source version (and since we
are on comp.lang.python I think so) you can use the command line option
-c

python xpn.py -c your_dir

and XPN will store its configs and data in this directory.

you can tweak the code if you want ;-)
the file is xpn.py

but maybe the view will be a little more messed ... anyway I'm not sure
I can change the size, maybe it depends on the font size.

no, XPN is definitively text-oriented. I'm not supporting attachments in
any way.

I don't like X-No-Archive ... but anyway you can set you custome header
to be used in every post you send in the Config Window (Posting tab)

Only an open thought:

[plugins]
> Would such an idea make sense for XPN?

yes but I should implement in some way the plugin support ... and I
don't know how to do it.


> XPN seems pretty stable and I enjoy this program more and more!

thank you very much.
