Gnus .SCORE files all over the place (d: drive became d_ dir?)

Gnus .SCORE files all over the place (d: drive became d_ dir?)

[Dmitry Yaitskov]

Hi,

Can somebody please explain this to me: recently (I do not think that
ever happened before a couple of weeks ago - hence probably not in b19
of XEmacs/one of the latest versions of pgnus) gnus started to create
score files all over the place - like in the directories where files
that I visited are etc. My home dir is d:\dima. Here and there I see
sub-trees of the form d_\dima\News with .SCORE and .ADAPT files in
them - so it looks like either gnus or XEmacs turned my d: drive into
a d_ directory name... Would appreciate any ideas. Thanks.

XEmacs 21.2  (beta20) "Yoko" [Lucid] (i586-pc-win32)
Gnus v5.8.2

Cheers,
-Dima.

Try CVS version or 5.8.3 when it is released.

This is the same problem I mentioned last week.  Gnus needs to change so
that the call to nnheader-translate-file-chars in gnus-score-save has no
second argument (or it is null).  In the current release, this is 't which
translates ":" into "_" in the directory names as well.
