news — Print News Items
Synopsis
/usr/bin/news [-a][-n][-s][items] Description
The news command consults the /var/news directory for information about current events. Use news to keep informed of current events. By convention, these events are described by files in the directory /var/news.
When invoked without arguments, news prints the contents of all current files in /var/news, most recent first, with each preceded by an appropriate header. news stores the currency time as the modification date of a file named .news_time in the user's home directory (the identity of this directory is determined by the environment variable $HOME); only files more recent than this currency time are considered current.
