With the scoring capability of the new souper it's easy.
That was what I was trying to do: You give a small negative
score to stuff you want killed, and a bigger positive score
to that you want to keep. As long as the total score is positive,
the article is included in the packet.

Yes, but since Souper also runs under Unix, nothing stops
you from running it at the ISP server as a replacement for
uqwk, so that the news get packed very quickly (souper
fetches them over the ISP's local network instead of a slow
modem link) and then I can zip them and download them compressed,
as with uqwk! That is, as soon as the ISP installs souper in their
server.
