Selecting and then saying ":e" is so nice. ydecode requires a filename argument, I believe. If you're running Linux or another system that uses /dev/stdin as a device file for standard input, then you can ydecode a news article within trn by typing |ydecode /dev/stdin Or you can select multiple articles and then try :|ydecode /dev/stdin If that works for you, then create a trn macro to speed things up.
