Subject: problem calling (gnus-group-get-new-news) from elisp
Date: Thu, 15 May 2008 11:40:28 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3d4nnzz03.fsf@verona.se> (raw)

I have code that calls (gnus-group-get-new-news) from elisp,
when a process finishes:

(defun jvfetchmail-sentinel (process event)
  (setq jvfetchmail-in-progress nil) ;should rather be called lat but currently gnus might fail
  (let*
      ((msg (format "fetchmail %s"  event)))
    (save-excursion
      (set-buffer (get-buffer-create "*fetchmail*"))
      
      (gnus-group-get-new-news)
      (insert msg))
    (princ msg)))

it kind of works, but I get "buffer readonly" messages, that I dont get
when I run the command interactively.

Also, the number of messages in my first group never gets updated, but
the others does.
