This manual page documents briefly the xpn command.

original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has
documentation in the GNU info(1) format; see below.
xpn is a graphical newsreader written in Python with the GTK+ toolkit.
With XPN you can read/write articles on the Usenet with a good MIME
support. XPN can operate with all the most diffuse charset starting
from US-ASCII to UTF-8. When you edit an article XPN automatically
chooses the best charset, however is always possible to override this
choice.
There also other useful features like scoring, filtered views, random
tag-lines, external editor support, one-key navigation, ROT13, spoiler
char, ...
