(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           knode
Version:           0.6.1 (using KDE 2.2.2 )
Severity:          wishlist
Installed from:    FreeBSD Ports
Compiler:          gcc 2.95.3
OS:                FreeBSD
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

You all know tin. Tin has only one "screen" open at any time in the very beginning you have group list screen then you enter into some group with "->" key. In this screen you see articles and threads of them and can enter into them for obvious reason - to read 'em! You can go all the way back with "<-" key step-by-step. That's what I'm missing I don't need several windows with group list article list and article content open at the same time. If you ever seen and used tin then you know what I demand. So why not use tin and get done? Because I'm tired of multilanguage problems and want switch to Unicode (UTF-8) entirely tin at this time well isn't very good.

I think this is a good idea. This is impartially implemented by Settings-> Show 
group/article/header view. However, it is noot very good now. There could be "Show 
only article view" etc. actions and keybindings for them. To emulate tin the key 
bindings can not be fixed but context-aware (one key gets back to header view from 
article view, then the same key gets back to group view from header view). But 
ordinary keybindings would be enough to get the advantage of having all the space 
for one thing. BTW, I'm accustomed to tin's back-to-previous-view behaviour, but still 
it sometimes confuses me. Ordinary key bindings could be even better.
