+Grn is NNTP client which is written with the help of Gnome and Gtk. It is
+designed primarily to look like tin as much as possible, but work under X, and
+use all the advantages that Gnome and Gtk provide. It is written also under the
+influence of FleetStreet - an FTN-compatible message editor for OS/2
+Presentation Manager.
+
+Grn also uses pthreads to allow the user to interact with the program during
+different time-consuming tasks (such as fetching grouplist or threading
+articles - these all run in another thread).
