Hi William,

Could you please send me by mail the checkgroups
you are using?  (those which generate these errors)
Attach the checkgroups to the mail, as a real file,
and not a copy/paste, so as not to change something
during the transfer.


> Here is the results using your wget fido and fr checkgroups with the echo "$PATS, etc added in

You did not say what "echo $PATS" wrote.  An empty
string ''?
It would have been interesting, especially for
the checkgroups which strange output.

That's pretty fine, then!

The descriptions above are encoded in UTF-8.  It's fine.
The intention is to have a newsgroups file whose descriptions are
all encoded in the same charset (UTF-8 recommended).  And it
is, as you mentioned before, what I am currently working at.


It appears that something is wrong in the checkgroups you
are currently using.  I would like to have an eye on it,
if you agree.  How did you get them?
