Subject: Gnus 5.x, OS/2 and those pesky colons :(
Date: Sat, 16 Dec 95 01:35:31 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <9512160635.AA0954@sturgeon.coelacanth.com> (raw)
I'm stuck using OS/2 instead of Linux a lot these days.
Unfortunately, OS/2 is unable to handle certain Gnus 5.x capabilities,
such as foreign groups, because of its inability to deal with ":"
characters in file names. Fixing gnus-newsgroup-saveable-name:
(defun gnus-newsgroup-saveable-name (group)
(gnus-replace-chars-in-string group ?/ ?. ?: ?. ?\\ ?. ?| ?.))
doesn't solve the whole problem.
Any helpful suggestions? (I don't really want to have to reboot into
Linux just to nnkiboze...)
