Thanks to John Robinson at BBN, I found my problem. You must remove the old version of the GNUS .elc and .el files from the lisp directory before installing and byte-compiling the new files. -- Harry Edmon ARPA: harry@rainbow.atmos.washington.edu (206) 543-0547 UUCP: uw-beaver!geops!elnino!harry Department of Atmospheric Sciences BITNET: HARRY@UWARITA University of Washington

I just got GNUS 3.8, and am enjoying it a lot. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool rn user and I find GNUS easy enough to use that it replaces rn and emacsclient for news reading and posting. However, I have some problems. First of all, is there some way to make it automatically go to the next newsgroup when you hit n or SPC and it says "end of newsgroup foo.bar, hit n to go to next group"? Secondly, I just re-subscribed to a group with U from newsgroup selection mode, and now when I go to the group and hit SPC, it checks bogus newsgroups and does nothing else, as if I'd hit b. What's going on? -- Roland McGrath roland@wheaties.ai.mit.edu, mit-eddie!wheaties.ai.mit.edu!roland

Date: 4 Oct 88 23:18:16 GMT From: flab!fgw!uunet!ucbvax.berkeley.edu!mcgrath (Roland McGrath) First of all, is there some way to make it automatically go to the next newsgroup when you hit n or SPC and it says "end of newsgroup foo.bar, hit n to go to next group"? There is no way, sorry. GNUS always ask you about it in order to prevent unexpected exit of current newsgroup. Secondly, I just re-subscribed to a group with U from newsgroup selection mode, and now when I go to the group and hit SPC, it checks bogus newsgroups and does nothing else, as if I'd hit b. What's going on? I think the newsgroup you re-subscribed was really bogus. In fact, it is possible to re-subscribe bogus newsgroup which is not yet identified so by GNUS. GNUS automatically runs checking of bogus newsgroups when a bogus newsgroup is selected next time, and remove them from your .newsrc file. Thus, these deleted newsgroups cannot be re-subscribed again. Masanobu UMEDA umerin@flab.flab.Fujitsu.JUNET umerin%flab.flab.Fujitsu.JUNET@uunet.uu.NET
