Well, I was going to go with the plain but simple "once you've read it, |
| 8 |
delete it" approach, but some people didn't like that. Next draft will |

propose being able to append .read to a filename to mark it read |
| 10 |
without deleting it. Either way, it's just a case of looking |
| 11 |
for ????-??-??-*.??.txt, chopping off the .??.txt, removing duplicates |
| 12 |
and counting. |
