Re: Dealing with Unicode

Hi Alex,

  name: SMILING FACE WITH HEART-SHAPED EYES

 After a few seconds, I get shown the buffer ` *Format Temp 0*' and a
 warning:

 --
 These default coding systems were tried to encode text
 in the buffer ` *Format Temp 0*':
  (emacs-mule (164 . 128525))

 How can I prevent this error message? Why is Gnus (or Emacs?) using
 emacs-mule to save this buffer?

 Perhaps the culprit is an entry in auto-coding-alist:

 (/#[^/]+#\\' . emacs-mule)

 I'll try using utf-8 and we'll see how it goes.

I've just tried sending a mail with that unicode character, and Gnus
didn't message an error.  The mail is sent as utf-8.

  Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
  Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

I don't have any configurations with respect to coding systems, neither
for Gnus nor for message or emacs in general.

Bye,
Tassilo

   And it takes long seconds to build up the data structures.

If order does not matter, you can use a hash table instead of an alist.

Re: How to get rid of many nnml mail directories en-masse

 Over the years I've accumulated many many nnml directories that are no
 longer in use.

 I know how to delete individual mail directories thru gnus
 interface... but how can I delete dozens of them.

 Something like just delete them and then excise them from .newsrc.eld?

 Is there some way better than that... but doesn't take all day to do?

Hi Harry, 

your question intrigued me because I had a few dozen such groups here. In
the absence of an answer from Those Who Know, this is how I did it.

1. In the group buffer hit 'L', to reveal all those unsubscribed groups.

2. Mark the UNwanted groups for processing and change them all to level 7
with S l

3. M-x gnus-group-kill-level and Gnus asks which level, tell it 7

that seems to have done the trick for me

hope that helps


Glyn
