This is the first public release of fc, a utilitiy program for AmigaUUCP
V1.16, with which other sites can change their news feed by sending simple
commands via email. Let me just attach the help file of fc. This file can
be requested by other sites if they forgot the syntax of the commands.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Information About Feed-Change
=============================

Send messages to the user  feed-change at the system you want to change the
news feed.  The remote system must  have added your system to his database,
otherwise  your  messages will  be ignored.  Some sites require  a password
which  must be written  in the Subject:  header line as the only item.  The
following is  a list of  valid commands.  The body is parsed  until the END
command  or until the  end of file is reached.  Commands can be  written in
either case  and are detected by their first  character only (the remaining
characters  can be  dropped if desired).  Leading  and  trailing spaces are
ignored.

ADD <newsgroup>
Add the newsgroup <newsgroup>  to the list of  newsgroups currently batched
for the neighboring system.  If the newsgroup already exists,  this command
is ignored except if a NEW command exists in the message body. In this case
no ADD commands are ignored.

END
Parsing of the message body stops at this point.

HELP
Send a  separate help  message  to  user  requesting  feed-change  service.
Multiple HELP commands are ignored.

LIST
This commands will not execute until all `ADD'  and `REMOVE'  commands have
completed.  Multiple `LIST'  commands are ignored.  This command attaches a
list of  newsgroups  currently  batched for the  neigboring  system to  the
return message.

NEW
Clear  current news feed.  This command takes affect before  newsgroups are
being added with the ADD command. Any REMOVE command will be ignored if the
NEW command is present. Multiple NEW commands are ignored.

REMOVE <newsgroup>
Remove  the newsgroup  <newsgroup>  from the  list of newsgroups  currently
batched for the neighboring system.  If the newsgroup is not present in the
list, this command is ignored.

SITE <nodename>
If user has access to  the news feed for multiple sites,  it is possible to
select one with this command.  Only one SITE command is allowed per message
to  feed-change.  The last  SITE  command found  will be used.  If no  SITE
command is used,  but the user can access the news feed for multiple sites,
an arbitrary feed is chosen.
