Is there such a manual around somewhere?
I don't know, but I would like to read it, if you find it. Generally though it is better to put the question like this: what would you like to do? Or: what are you doing, that you would like to do in another way? what are you doing that you don't want to do? etc. If you just want to be a more advanced user all over the board, then indeed the reference manual should keep you busy years to come :) -- underground experts united _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
