You mean something other than typing "pine" at a prompt?
That'll start it for ya. Of course if you want any special sorting or
starting in your inbox instead of that welcome screen, you might add
some options. It's run just like any other from-the-command-line program

(probably /faq.html ;o)), and there are sources around the web that I
