*wildcard* newsgroup search fails me

[James E. Ormond]

	I need some help.

	Being a rather new user on the system, I thought I would
	peruse the network news facility to see what groups there
	are out there.  To do this I said:

		vnews -n net

	and happily started through a wildcard search of net.{whatever}
	news.  When I came across net.games.trivia and gave the ol' N
	command to vnews to find the next group, I was sent off into 
	hyperspace.  

	The same thing seems to happen with readnews.  Is there some way
	around this problem, or is there another way of finding out what
	groups are available to get news from?

	Thanks in advance,
