* Added AUTHINFO SIMPLE support to NNTP retrieval. This allows usage of newstap with systems like news.individual.net, which use this simple username/password scheme. There is still no support for encrypted sessions or any nontrivial authentication scheme. * Added NEWEST N as an option for retrieval limiting (in addition to the existing OLDEST N) * Added an INITIALLY option to control the first retrieval on a group; the intended use is as INITIALLY NEWEST N, which corresponds to that "Download newest ___ headers" dialog you always see on regular newsreaders. * Fixes: A bug in the progress bar was fixed; the warning level was upped and all warnings coming from gcc-3.2.3 or gcc-2.95 were eliminated.
