I agree that it was easy to load TM. It says nothing about it being a part of Gnus. It's always been an extension package. > People have been using TM, and *only* TM, as "Gnus' MIME viewer" for > years. Breaking those habits should be done with care. This is patently false. People have also been using rmime. I didn't want to have anything to do with TM because of its extremely ugly user-interface. As for breaking habits, many habits were broken by introducing message-mode instead of mail and news modes, and yet the users adapted. > You might as well stop telling people to adjust their mail addresses > with user-mail-address, because the definition of user-mail-address > "isn't part of Gnus." ? -- Hrvoje Niksic | Student at FER Zagreb, Croatia --------------------------------+-------------------------------- Ask not for whom the tolls.
