I'm trying to get Supercite, BBDB, and Gnus to play together nicely so that if I have an 'attribution' field in a BBDB entry it is used, if not then choice should fall through the entries in sc-preferred-attribution-list, like normal. Having entries without attributions pick one up on reply would be nice too. I can tell (or at least I think) that I need to set "sc-consult" as the first (or second) entry in sc-preferred-attribution-list, and that I should set up sc-attrib-selection-list to return the value from BBDB. I also think that bbdb/sc-consult-attr is going to be in there somewhere. Unfortunately, I can't seem to make the pieces fit together. Info does a nice job of defining the functions and variables, but doesn't talk so much about how to make them go. XEmacs 21.2.19, Gnus 5.6.45, Supercite 3.1, BBDB 2.00.06. Thanks for any help. john. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ John S Jacobs Anderson Apprentice Geek jacobs@genehack.org Journeyman Molecular Biologist <------- GeneHack: bioinfo*linux*opinion
