These lists make up most of the trn interface, including:
| Selecting items | |
|---|---|
| A-Za-z0-9 | Any key listed down the left margin is used to toggle an item between selected (+) and unselected. (There is also an intermediate state (*) which indicates that some strict subset of the items have been selected, for example by the "select followups to my own posts" feature.) |

| <SPACE> | pagedown |
| > | pagedown |
| < | pageup |
| ^ | to first page |
| $ | to last page |
| ^R | redraw from top of list |
| ^N | check for new articles (only works at screen for selection of groups to read) |
| Z | continues to child screen with currently selected items (as an alternative to getting to the bottom of the list and hitting <SPACE> one more time) |
| n | go to next item (not very useful) |
| p | go to previous item (not very useful) |
