Hi!

I have noticed that Gnus ignores the variable
browse-url-new-window-p.  Please apply the attached patch.

/Peter

Well, I've tried to get a similar patch in, but it was argued that
browse-url should check its own variables. It only does that when
called interactively. Maybe there should be a gnus-specific option
too...

The problem is, at least with XEmacs 21.[12], that pGnus calls the value
of 'browse-url-browser-function' directly rather than through the
'browse-url' function. For some reason, unbeknownst to me.

Ideally, calling through the public interface would be nice. Less prone
to breakage as well...

This has now been fixed.

It still doesn't work for me.  I wonder if it's a problem with the
browse-url distributed with XEmacs 21.1.7?  Near as I can tell I've
got the latest mail-lib package which includes browse-url.  Also,
based on the CVS update I did a little while ago, there's one thing
you missed fixing:

in gnus-art.el I still see:

(defun gnus-button-embedded-url (address)
  "Browse ADDRESS."
  ;; In Emacs 20, `browse-url-browser-function' may be an alist.
  (if (listp browse-url-browser-function)
      (browse-url (gnus-strip-whitespace address))
    (funcall browse-url-browser-function (gnus-strip-whitespace address))))

Anyway, my personal fix for this remains:

(defadvice browse-url (around always-do-new-window (url &optional nw) activate)
  (ad-set-arg 1 t)
  ad-do-it)

Yup.  Fix in Gnus v5.8.0.
