Oh, yes. I always run the Agent as a cron job at background. And using
the following gnus deamon to read the cache:
,----
| (defun xwl-gnus-group-get-new-news ()
| (interactive)
| (if gnus-plugged
| (gnus-group-get-new-news 3)
| ;; Read agent cache.
| (gnus-read-active-file)
| (gnus-get-unread-articles)
| (gnus-group-list-groups)))
`----
Seems working fine for me. It would be better if there was a
gnus-agent-group-get-new-news for reading the cache, though.
