1 NEWS
 The NEWS facility contains single screen items of current interest,
 arranged in chronological order. ( Permanent online documentation of products
 is contained in the HELP libraries, and in individual product directories. )

 Use the NEWS command to obtain access (through VMS MAIL) to the current
 items posted in the NEWS facility.  If you specify an optional topic,
 the latest item containing that string will be displayed on your terminal.
 You may then use the Mail command SEARCH to find earlier items containing
 the same string.

 Use the ARTICLE command to add items to NEWS.  In the near future, an ADD
 qualifier to NEWS will be provided for this purpose, and ARTICLE will be 
 removed. Compatibility with the BULLETIN posting mechanisms will also
 be available soon.

                   * P E N D I N G *
