-"""An NNTP client class based on RFC 977: Network News Transfer Protocol.
-
-Example:
-
->>> from nntplib import NNTP
->>> s = NNTP('news')
->>> resp, count, first, last, name = s.group('comp.lang.python')
->>> print 'Group', name, 'has', count, 'articles, range', first, 'to', last
-Group comp.lang.python has 51 articles, range 5770 to 5821
->>> resp, subs = s.xhdr('subject', first + '-' + last)
->>> resp = s.quit()
->>>
-
-Here 'resp' is the server response line.
-Error responses are turned into exceptions.
-
-To post an article from a file:
->>> f = open(filename, 'r') # file containing article, including header
->>> resp = s.post(f)
->>>
-
-For descriptions of all methods, read the comments in the code below.
-Note that all arguments and return values representing article numbers
-are strings, not numbers, since they are rarely used for calculations.
