Why do you think that? ,----[ ~/repos/gnus/README ] [...] | To use Gnus you first have to unpack the files, which you've obviously | done, because you are reading this. | | You should definitely byte-compile the source files. To do that, you | can simply say "./configure && make" in this directory. | | Do not say "make install". I repeat, do *NOT* say "make install". If | you say "make install" and then complain about things not working, | I'll be very annoyed. If you say "make install" and things happen to | work, that's all fine and dandy for you, but it's quite likely that it | won't. | | If you are using XEmacs, you *must* say "./configure && make | EMACS=xemacs". | | Then you have to tell Emacs where Gnus is. You might put something | like | | (setq load-path (cons (expand-file-name "~/ngnus-0.7/lisp") load-path)) | (require 'gnus-load) | | in your .emacs file, or wherever you keep such things. `---- That's all that is needed to get Gnus working.
