Subject: Gnus and NoCeM.
Date: Thu, 15 Jul 1999 10:59:42 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.BSF.4.02.9907151033120.5516-100000@itchy.serv.net> (raw)
Well, I'm finally playing around with NoCeM. I've always loved this idea in
principle, but just never enabled it. So now I have.
What I love: Dang. Spam and velveeta just completely disappears in handfuls.
It's not perfect---I'm afraid that's going to have to wait for the long-awaited
gnus-ai.el---but it makes reading Usenet a lot more interesting.
What I hate: My gawd, it takes forever. Starting Gnus this morning took well
over an hour (on a lightly loaded 200MHz Pentium FreeBSD 3.2 box with a 384K
DSL link).
Some questions:
1. Is there a way to run NoCeM asynchronously?
2. Is there a way to shorten the process---perhaps a support program to
prefetch and preprocess the NoCeM articles into a form that Gnus can
process a lot faster?
3. Is there an easy way to divide up the gnus-group-get-new-news function
into two functions: gnus-group-get-new-news (which obeys NoCeM) and
gnus-group-get-new-mail (which doesn't)? (This doesn't matter if
either 1 or 2 can be answered in the positive.)
However, I should point out that I'm gradually incorporating my email (finally)
into Gnus, and dang, I love this thing. Only 80 more old mailfolders and a
LOT of procmail recipes to go. :)
