gnus-visible-headers

OK, this is not terribly important, just something that has me puzzled.

I can't seem to get pgnus 0.98 to diplay the User-Agent header.  I thought
I knew how gnus-visible-headers worked, but apparently I've misunderstood
something.  Here's the relevant line from my .gnus.  The other headers
appear as expected.


(setq gnus-visible-headers "^Date:\\|^From:\\|^To:\\|^Subject:\\|^Newsgroups:\\|^User-Agent:\\|^X-Mailer:\\|^X-Mailreader:\\|^X-Newsreader:\\|^X-User-Agent:\\")


Like I said, not very important.  But I do like to see what news/mail
programs people are using.  I'm trying to display all of those kinds of
headers just to satisfy my curiosity.

^^

Obviously those backslashes don't belong there.  I was experimenting with
different orderings.  But that's not the problem.

I figured it out.  pgnus was using an old ~/gnus.eld.  I byte-compiled my
.gnus and it picked up my changes.

I guess pgnus doesn't automatically recompile .gnus when it changes.
Probably a good idea.  And I probably knew that at one time, but I had
forgotten.

The easiest thing to do is to not compile ~/.gnus.  Otherwise, you
could add stuff to the Local Variables section which automatically
byte-compiles the file after saving.
