Note that trn4 is *not* a simple replacement for trn.  It has a similar
interface but a completely different configuration system and a different
(and disjoint) set of bugs.

That being said, people who are still using trn should probably be
investigating better-supported newsreaders such as slrn.

I play this regularly.  Please orphan before simply removing; the problems
don't look particularly hard to fix.  There is a much, much newer upstream
version and it looks like it's been ported to GTK 2.  I'll take this one
if no one else steps forward.  Orphaning gives a real chance at
volunteers.
