papercut(1)
NAME
papercut - simple and extensible NNTP server
SYNOPSIS
papercut [[-f] | [--foreground]]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the papercut command.
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the
original program does not have a manual page.
papercut is a simple NNTP server. Its main objective is to integrate
existing web based message board software with an Usenet front-end.
However, using Python, new article containers can be added to store and
retrieve messages from various source and formats.
Please note that Papercut is only a NNTP server, not a full-featured
news transport system. It does not handle newsfeeding or other usual
news software features.
