Hi ShadowTek,

You will not need to use the -i option for your $HOME/.slrnrc file. The
sequence that slrn accepts (which is common for a lot of linux software)
is:

1. Commandline options
2. $HOME/.slrnrc file
3. /etc/news/slrn.rc

and slrn looks at each in turn on startup. I am not familiar with conky
which actionparsnip mentioned but I would imagine it has a similar
setup.

Andrew
