# yapfaq
|
||||
|
||||
**yapfaq** can post FAQs from text files to Usenet at configurable intervals and automatically adds the necessary headers.
|
||||
|
||||
## Description
|
||||
|
||||
With **yapfaq**, FAQs or other texts can be posted regularly (every x days, weeks, months or years) to one or more newsgroups. Posting frequency as well as the necessary headers - including the format of the `Message-ID:` headers that will be generated - can be defined in a configuration file. `Expires:` and `Supersedes:` will be set automatically by the script.
|
||||
|
||||
The text can either be posted via NNTP or piped to another programme (like `inews` or `tinews.pl`).
|
||||
|
||||
## More information
|
||||
|
||||
Please see the [distribution page](https://th-h.de/net/software/yapfaq/) (in German).
