Yarn.doc _shows_ an example. In _this_ specific case, it would be:
10 From: joe@someisp.com
-5 Subject: Netscape
-5 Body Netscape
If you want to get fancy, the bottom example line might be:
-5 pattern Body \bNetscape\b
(you want "Netscape" to be delimited by blanks - i.e. it must be a word)
> and how one would go about setting it up?
Read the last paragraph in topic USING SCORE FILES in yarn.doc
[The name of the "global" score file is: %HOME%\yarn\scores\global.
The names of individual newsgroup score files are of the form
%HOME%\yarn\scores\xxxxxxxx.0. It is easier to use Yarn command 'E'
as described, than to manually figure out the filename for your editor.]
The things you would most likely do with score files are super easy
with Yarn. While looking at an article by an author you want to
"filter out", key in 'E'. A menu appears -- select the "From" rule.
An input area appears -- set the points to -5 or whatever (if you
wish to manipulate the name, tab over and manipulate - but it is not
necessary to do so), hit 'enter', and the updated score file is saved.
(It will take effect the NEXT time you load Yarn.)

The default _is_ to display messages with scores of 0 or greater.
So you don't have to do anything.

By the way, the messages which "fail" the Yarn score test are merely
marked as "read". So your usual process of viewing "unread" messages
will not show them. But if you select "all messages" from the
newsgroup selection level (by using 'enter'), the article selection
menu that is shown _does_ include these messages.
