	Checking back in the dusty directories of past abuse, I find the
following script:

strings core | egrep "^((fa)|(general)|(junk)|(net)|(test)|(to)).*[:!] [0-9]*"

	This does a fair job of recovering your .newsrc; to check on how well
it did, pipe its output through sort(1) and diff it with the output of
"sort ~/.newsrc".
