Linux equivalent to News Rover

[Brian Pack]

I've been using Pan as my USENET reader for some time now, but whenever I'm on 
the Windows side, I use News Rover. I like News Rover's ability to recognize 
split files (i.e. file.001, .002, etc) as one file, and knowing how to join 
them, whereas Pan sees them as individual files that have to be manually 
joined later. News Rover also can uncompress RAR archives inside the 
newsreader, and clean up afterwards. It also uses PAR files to repair damaged 
files where necessary.

News Rover runs acceptably enough in WINE, although the tweaks I had to use 
have it running in every desktop. I'd really prefer a Linux native newsreader 
that does these things.
