Hi Michael. I'm amazed I saw your message. I reported this bug on emacs-pretest-bugs and don't read emacs-devel. I just happened to notice my name while looking through the archives for a Windows Emacs pretest binary. Please, anyone, when replying to messages forwarded from a different list, either reply to the original list or the original author. Otherwise your reply could well go unseen by the person you're attempting to address. To answer your question: gnus-read-active-file is a variable defined in `gnus-start.el'. Its value is some Chris. _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
