Jason R Mastaler 0 siblings, 2 replies; 3+ messages in thread From: Andi Kleen @ 1998-10-23 14:09 UTC (permalink / raw) Hallo, I just installed pgnus-0.36 under vanilla GNU Emacs 20.3 (no patches). I use (standard-display-european 1) Now when I view a message that contains German umlauts (but often no appropiate MIME headers) the new pgnus prints them as \<octalval>Umlaut. Older gnus versions (5.4.x) just printed the umlauts themselves. Is there a way to get the old behaviour back? It looks like a bug to me, because duplicating the character doesn't make much sense. Another question: Is it possible to use qmail style Maildirs under gnus? -Andi ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

I think that the only thing you should be using is (set-language-environment "Latin-1") and not standard display-european though I could be wrong ... Lars? Anyone? Try removing the (standard-display-european 1) inserting the set-language-environment and restarting emacs and gnus. Lee. -- I was doing object-oriented assembly at 1 year old ...

Currently, Gnus does not support maildir natively. This topic has come up at various times over the years, but maildir support has never made it in. Lars is not opposed to the idea which is good: <URL:http://www.gnus.org/list-archives/ding/199804/msg00211.html> Pat LoPresti took a crack at maildir support a few months ago, but it appears the mail backend stuff in Gnus needs to be re-worked first: <URL:http://www.gnus.org/list-archives/ding/199804/msg00225.html> This is where the issue currently stands AFAIK. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
