News::Pan

If you're a Pan newsreader user, you know how great it is. However, finding a particular article in a sea of groups and messages can be a headache. Luckily, News::Pan is here to solve that problem. This Perl module provides a set of routines that let you interact with your Pan cache in various ways.

The module consists of several API components: News::Pan::Server, News::Pan::Group, and News::Pan::Group::_Search. With News::Pan::Server, you can get a list of cached groups, while News::Pan::Group lets you retrieve article subjects, among other things. And if you need to search a single newsgroup, look no further than News::Pan::Group::_Search.

But the real magic happens when you put it all together with the command-line interface (CLI). This is where panfind comes in, which is included in the module distribution. With panfind, you can search all your newsgroups at once for articles that match a certain criteria. It will even tell you the number of results and which newsgroup they're in. How cool is that?

Overall, News::Pan is a powerful tool that can make your Pan experience even better. Whether you're a power user or just want to find a particular article, this Perl module has got you covered. Give it a try and see for yourself how much easier it can make your life.
