News::Article::Clean		Subroutines to clean News::Article headers
News::Article::Cancel		Generate accurate cancel messages
News::NNTPAuth			Deprecated for Net::NNTP::Auth
Net::NNTP::Auth			A standard NNTP authentication method
Net::NNTP::Proxy		A news server in perl

Installation Instructions
=========================

If you've got perl installed, it's easy:

  perl Makefile.PL

(If you don't have sudo installed, run the final command as root.)

If you don't have perl installed, then go install it and start over.
It'll do you good.
