I'm a bit confused about W3 and Emacs/W3 (hope I got the names right) Which one do I want for the text console and GNU Emacs 20.7? > Hm.

When I select the alternative I get 'Displaying gnome-help-browser '/tmp/emm.2663yF/mm.266E9L'...' Looks as if my (Debian) installation is broken somehow, as I do not use Gnome (but had tried it once). > It might also help to say > > (require 'mm-decode) > (add-to-list 'mm-discouraged-alternatives "text/html") Yes, that works. > But I think that Gnus should do something useful even without this. Thank you for your help. Robert Epprecht
