I spent some time trying to set up my X-face: header in gnus. Since I'm no lisp god, you can understand how frustrated I was. Anyway I claim that the GNUS >= v5.8.8 does not have enough documentation (info file) on setting up the X-face header. I finally found how to set it up from some post from 1999 in the group. Why can't an X-face file be specified in 'customize->gnus'? Since they are displayed in gnus, shouldn't people be able to configure which one to send. I will include the old threads that brought this to mind: -------------------------------------------------------------- I'm not sure what the proper way is, but I've been using the following for some time, and it works great. I'm not sure where this came from originally; presumably one of the prolific contributors to this list. Another option is to use gnus-posting-styles, IIRC. It is probably a bug that this isn't covered in the documentation. I'd submit a doc patch, but am not confident enough that this is the most elegant way to do it. (defun message-insert-x-face () (save-excursion (goto-char (point-min)) (search-forward mail-header-separator) (beginning-of-line nil) (insert "X-Face: ") (insert-file (expand-file-name "/u/mmp/.xface")))) (add-hook 'message-send-hook 'message-insert-x-face) -matt -------------------------------------------------------------- I, for once, also searched for directions on inserting X-Face in gnus and Xemacs manuals, and found nothing. I think that it should be covered somewhere. So, I second the request: could somebody please share the proper way of inserting x-face header with gnus? Thanks, -- Arcady Genkin ---------------------------------------------------------------- > So, I second the request: could somebody please share the proper way > of inserting x-face header with gnus? I don't know of any "proper" way. --------------------------------------------------------------- -- - Nick
