.I lpost
[
.BI

-v verbose, show each article as it is uploaded.
.SH NOTE
Use the batch function of suck and avoid lpost, this is
not the most efficient way of doing things. It is kept solely
as a link to the past, since some people still use it.
It is not compiled nor installed by default. To build and
install lpost, from the source directory, run:
.RS
./configure
.RE
.RS
make install_lpost
.RE
.SH DESCRIPTION
.I lpost
(local post) reads stdin and pipes the articles to
.I rnews,
typically found in /usr/lib/news. If it is located
elsewhere, change
.I #define RNEWS
in
.I suck_config.h.
A typical way to use lpost is:
.RS
zcat output.gz | lpost
.RE
This could take a while, so be patient.
