I am using slrn 1.0.3a on Slackware64-15.0 with Eternal September. When
i view alt.folklore.computers, slrn gives the following prompt:
alt.folklore.computers: Read how many? (default: 220682)
When i run:
grep 'alt\.folklore\.computers' \
~/.slrn/grouplist-eternal-september{,.as}
Both lines end with:
alt.folklore.computers: 220683
This would indicate that you haven't read any of the articles in the
group.
Is that the full line in both files?
I am having trouble with slrn tracking which articles are marked read in alt.folklore.computers. It does not affect any of the other groups i am subscribed to.
Any suggestions how to troubleshoot this further?

Make a copy your of the relevant newsrc file, start a normal slrn
session with no macros running, mark some articles read in the alt.folklore.computers read, visit other groups and mark some articles
read in those groups, and then quit slrn normally. This should let
slrn update the newsrc and close the open file handle to the newsrc.
