Here's the process I am using to test this: pick a newsgroup using NNTP G s b (gnus soup brew) at this point I have 3 files in ~/Soupbrew 1.idx 1.msg areas G s p (gnus soup pack) now the three above files are in 1 packed file Change my server select method to nnsoup delete ~/.newsrc*.* Copy the soupout2 file into ~/ gnus notices this and unpacks it into ~/Soup (I set that as the tmp directory because I had a problem with the copying from /tmp to ~/Soup... I now have 3 files in ~/Soup 1.msg 1.idx areas A k reveals nothing killed A z reveals no zombies gnus seems to not notice the unpacked soup packet. In the docs it mentions an active file and how screwed you are without one. Where does it come from? Am I doing somthing wrong? If someone can tell me where somthing is not doing the right thing, I can look into it more. I seem to remember more files being part of a soup package... (like a list file) This used to work. If anyone has any insight, let me know. --------------------- from my .emacs... ;; Set or backend (setq gnus-select-method '(nnsoup "")) ;; Soup Packer and Unpacker (setq nnsoup-packer "jar32 m -m4 Soupout%d.j $HOME/SoupBrew/ %s") (setq gnus-soup-packer "jar32 m -m4 Soupout%d.j $HOME/SoupBrew/ %s") (setq nnsoup-unpacker "jar32 e %s -od:/emacs/soup") (setq gnus-soup-unpacker "jar32 e %s -od:/emacs/soup") (setq gnus-soup-packet-directory "~/Soup") (setq nnsoup-tmp-directory "~/Soup") (setq nnsoup-active-file "~/Soup/active")
