I upgraded to yarn092 a while ago, and am now using yarn for win95.
I just attempted to do an expire -r for the first time (first time using ANY
expire with the 0.9 and up format).

IN any case, I got the following error message: [Here's the text output
that hadn't scrolled off the top of hte dos box...]

============

ABNORMAL TERMINATION
del d:\netnews\yarn\expire\yarn\newsrc
Deleting d:\netnews\yarn\expire\yarn\newsrc
1 file(s) deleted
=======================
the long path, btw, is because I grep .newsrcs from two users into a single
"expire" home path.
