I just implemented it for myself and it works like a charm -- except that gnus always hangs! This would be perfect for me if it wasn;t for that minor detail. It is quite consistent, however. I will always hang if I use your technique of starting gnus in a new frame. If I start it in the initial frame after immediately starting my session, gnus works fine (that is, until it hangs due to some timeout) ...Jake KG> On 01 Jun 2001, Jake Colman wrote: >> The only way I can successfully start gnus is if I start gnus from the >> initial frame and create my additional frames only after gnus is up >> and running.
