#ifndef HTNEWS_H
#define HTNEWS_H
#include "HTEvntrg.h"
We define the max NNTP line as rather long as the result coming from a XOVER command needs it. If the line is longer then it is chopped, but we will almost have received the information we're looking for.
#define MAX_NEWS_LINE		512

extern HTEventCallback HTLoadNews;

Setting Number of Articles to Show

You can set the number of news articles to be shown at a time. If you set the number to none (0) then all articles are shown at once. This is also the default behavior.
extern BOOL HTNews_setMaxArticles (int new_max);
extern int HTNews_maxArticles (void);

Handling the News Host

The default news host is "news" but you can get ans set the value here.
extern BOOL HTNews_setHost (CONST char * newshost);
extern CONST char *HTNews_host (void);
extern void HTFreeNewsHost (void);
#endif /* HTNEWS_H */
