-.B Automatic update checking
-.P
-Once a week the program will automatically check for a new version when it exits.
-It will request a file named "version" from my webserver and compare
-the returned value with the local program version. If they differ it
-notifies the user of a new version. It is done on exit to be least
-annoying I hope. This way you can easily ignore it if you don't want
-to upgrade for some reason or can't, because you're using a package
-that came with your distribution, etc. To disable this check, put the value
--1 into the file ~/.snownews/updatecheck. Snownews will
-not transfer anything to my server. It will just download a file
-containing the version number and compare it locally.

-.B Syncing
-.P
-Snownews comes with an extension program called "snowsync" that allows
-syncing of subscriptions lists between different installations. This little
-helper script is written in Perl and requires the modules XML::LibXML,
-XML::LibXSLT and libwww-perl to be installed. Additionally you will need an
-account on a storage server where the data will be uploaded. The default
-storage server is provided by me, if you want to use it, just mail me and
-I'll give you an account. The uploaded data will be encrypted with GnuPG so
-there are no worries about having sensitive data in your subscription list.
-.P
-Snowsync is invoked with "snowsync remote" to upload data, "local" to download
-it to your local installation and "delete" to remove any information published
-on the storage. See "snowsync --help".
-.P
-If you want to run your own storage server, see the webpage at
-http://kiza.kcore.de/software/nwstorage/.
