Using the command: latex refcard.tex will generate a refcard.dvi file However running the same command on: gnusref.tex postamble.tex only produces the output below: Reading the gnusref.log mentioned there didn't help much either. Still wasn't clear what had happened. > This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (C version 6.1) > (gnusref.tex > LaTeX2e <1996/12/01> patch level 1 > Babel and hyphenation patterns for american, german, loaded. > ) > * > !

PS -- is there a refcard.tex or gnusref.tex available that is newer than gnus-5.5? -- Harry Putnam reader@newsguy.com
