Subject: piping of marked articles
Date: 23 May 1996 18:31:18 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <iumvihnt421.fsf@manila.cc.columbia.edu> (raw)

Is there a way to do this under Gnus (.91):
	I have a large number of articles (say, 100 or so) in an nnml
spool file, each article having only a few lines of text; I can easily
process mark the articlesp using M P R or along those lines, but then I
would like to pipe *all* the marked articles through a shell script.
The problem is this: Gnus seems to pipe *each* article one by one
through the shell script; this is not what I want.  I would Gnus to
concatenate the text from all the articles and *then* pipe the Whole
Thing through the script.

I must be missing something here...

Thanks much.

P.S.  This is done daily, so I would like to make it as easy as
possible.  If it were only a one-time thing, then I would just dump
them to a file, etc.
